C# how to lock the file -
we using application reads file , inserts database. reason, set creation time particular time. , when create file application picks file before change creation time. there anyway can lock file until change creation time.
the error getting @ file.setcreationtime file being used other process or file archived.
//copy signal file s = filepath + "s"; news = targetfullpath2 + "s"; file.copy(s, news, true); // //new creation ts dtfilecreation = file.getcreationtime(s); //retain creation time file.setcreationtime(news, dtfilecreation);
please advice.
the common solution create file (and set timestamp) in different directory or under different name first, , move or rename when it’s ready other process can pick up. move/rename atomic operation on ntfs (unless of course move files between separate partitions).
for example:
s = filepath + "s"; news = targetfullpath2 + "s"; file.copy(s, news + "_", true); // add _ other process // doesn’t “see” file yet dtfilecreation = file.getcreationtime(s); file.setcreationtime(news + "_", dtfilecreation); // we’re done file, rename intended final name file.move(news + "_", news);
