File creation/Change event

[lairdre]

Hello All,

I've been looking through the libs to see if anyone captures a file create/change event. I need a way to be notified when a file is created.

Does anyone know if we already have this capability?

Thanks

Ron

There is nothing that will do that directly but you might be able to roll your own depending upon the performace you want. If you know the folder where the file will appear you could use a timer and check every couple of seconds for the file. However you couldn't check more than a few folders without incurring a performance hit.
