C :: File Attribute Modification Program Not Working

I would like to modify attributes like modification/creation dates.The function is correctly working as if I type in "ls -al", the timestamp is correct. But when using my program to read these attributes, it returns the "real" modification/creation date. Here is the function that shows the timestamp :

Code:

time_t t = sb.st_mtime; struct tm tm = *localtime (&t);
char s[32];
strftime (s, sizeof s, "%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S", &tm);
printf ("%-14s %s", lecture->d_name, s); And here is the code for modifying the timestamps : Code: void modifyAttributes(char * file, int mtime, int atime)
}

[code]....
