B4J Question JSON & Unix Timestamps

[LWGShane]

I'm wondering what would it take to continuously read a JSON file and look for new objects with Unix Timestamps newer than the previous.

Ex:

{  
   "unix_timestamp_1":{ 
   },
   "unix_timestamp_2":{ 
   }
}

With new Unix Timestamps being added after X amount of time.

Probably something to do with File.LastModified.

You cannot continuously read from a file. You can use a timer to check whether the file was modified since the last read and then read it again.

You can use the jFileWatcher library to receive _FileModified events.
