I am trying to find out exactly when this even fires when a file is
"created" in a directory being monitored. That is, for a large file, that
takes several minutes to upload, will the created event fire as soon as the
file starts loading, or only when the file has been completely uploaded.
I can't find any documentation to this at MSDN.
Thanks,
Ripley

Nevermind - a google search soon turned up this page: http://bloggingabout.net/blogs/jschr.../06/12886.aspx
In it, the author explains that the created event is fired as soon as the
first byte is written. He then shows a way to handle this.

I'm setting up a watched folder using FileSystemWatcher.
When I drop a small file into the watched folder, I can
respond to a .Created event and process the file with
other code. However, if I try copying a large file into
the watched folder, the .Created event is fired off
immediately and not when the file is finished copying. I
have tried waiting for a certain number of .Changed
events to be fired after the initial .Created event, and...

How do I prevent the FileSystemWatcher event to keep firing while the file
is being created? When copying a file to the watched folder, the event
fires a dozen or more times! Also, the documentation states that if more
than one file is copied to the folder at the same time, a cache will queue
them up for processing, but when I drop 3 files into this folder, only the
1st (sometimes the first two) cause the event to fire.
Thanks,
Troy

I'm trying to figure out a way to catch when a file has been written
to a directory. I currently have it where I can catch when the file
begins writing, but this isn't helpful as I need to know when its
done. Does anyone know the right combination of flags to use to catch
when the file has been written and closed? (here is my current code).

Hi,
I developed a filewatcher service to monitor file creation on a network
drive - 90% time it works fine and from time to time I found out that the
newly created file on that network drive does not trigger the event - all I
have to do is to restart the service.
I kind of suspect the reason is when the target matchine where monitored
drive is on gets rebooted, the filesystemwatcher lost its "monioring"
capability, is that true? if...

Hi,
I want to use the FileSystemWatcher in a Windows Service. I read an article,
where the author created the FileSystemWatcher object in a seperate thread
and when the event is fired, he started a working thread for processing the
file, created a new FileSystemWatcher (as he said for real time processing),
and then called the join method for the first thread.
I can't really see the sence in this. Aren't the events of the...

System.IO.FileSystemWatcher
When a user copies and pastes a file from one directory to a directory that is monitored
by the FileSystemWatcher, the FileSystemWatcher executes twice, once for a CREATED file
event and once for a CHANGED file event.
I think I understand why. First the monitored file is created and then contents are
inserted into it. (Although the file datetime remains the same.)
This is not what I require. If there is...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
