Hi Norbert,
well, I couldn't find a File.copy method in the documentation of Java 7
or Java 8.
Do you refer to the ImageJ File.copy macro function?
Its code is here:
https://github.com/imagej/imagej1/blob/master/ij/macro/Functions.java#lL4204Already the early Java versions have
long File.lastModified()
and
File.setLastModified(long time)
I think you can use these to transfer the modification date (I have not
tried).
(If this might be useful for others, maybe we could have the file
copying function in somewhere in ij.utils or IJ.java, maybe preserving
the date?)
Michael
