## Format

int PxIOGetFileTime(PxIOFileHandle handle, int64_t *timestamp, PxIOFileTimeType fileTimeType);

Where:

handle | The handle of an open file.
timestamp | A pointer to an int64_t variable that will receive the requested timestamp value. Timestamp values are in POSIX time format.
fileTimeType | The specific timestamp to retrieve. See Appendix F for a list of currently allowed timestamps.

#### Note:
POSIX time format is a standard that is defined as the number of seconds since 00:00:00, January 1st, 1970, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Coordinated Universal Time is roughly equivalent to Greenwich Mean Time. This standard is widely used in many "Unix-like" systems.
