Hi All, I am running into a concurrency problem. I have a worker process
which reads some data out of a file and inserts fresh data into it. I have
put a Monitor.Enter(this) and Monitor.Exit(this) on both of the routines
which do read and writes.
The worker process is spawned off by a Multithreaded application. I am
seeing error in log which tells me that

Earlier I tried using the Reader and Writer locks too...but ran into timeout

How do Rectify this?

Hi, Vai2000
It looks like you don not close file when using it - basically that means
you are trying to access same file from at least 2 different threads and
second thread cannot get access. Check where you open file before entering
monitor and if you close it properly before exiting.

It's a bad idea to lock on "this" - see

Right. That suggests that you haven't closed the file earlier - or that
a different process is indeed using it, or that another thread is
trying to use it at the same time.

Here's little more scoop to the Problem.
--- ProcessA calls x number of WorkerThreads which try to access a file for
reading and writing.
-- Main Process can potentially Launch x number of ProcessA
How do I guard the resource...hack way is to put the stuff in DB and read
and write off the DB but I don't want any R/T over the wire!!!
Temp solution was that I have applied delay on the Main process which calls
ProcessA and at this time ProcessA is launching only 1 Thread.
But need some solid solution.
Appreciate all ur inputs

Guard the resource with a mutex, or better use a queue to post the IO
requests from your worker threads to a single thread to do your 'shared'
file IO.
