I am following this example of FileSystemWatcher, On the top of this, I have created windows form application which will open whenever any .txt file is created and renamed in Z drive.
I have built the console application and deployed to two system and both systems are listening to same network drive (I have mapped a network drive as Z drive in both systems)
However, the problem is whenever I am creating or renaming .txt file in network drive both system's forms are opening which is logical since both deployed console applications are listening to the same location.
But my requirement is " The form should be opened in that system only who is performing the action of creating or renaming that
.txtfile."Is there any way I can achieve this Or is this even possible with
fileSystemWatcherclass?
Here is the code snippet.
public class Watcher
{
public static void Main()
{
Run();
}
[PermissionSet(SecurityAction.Demand, Name = "FullTrust")]
public static void Run()
{
string[] args = System.Environment.GetCommandLineArgs();
FileSystemWatcher watcher = new FileSystemWatcher("Z:\\", "*.txt");
watcher.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.LastAccess | NotifyFilters.LastWrite
| NotifyFilters.FileName | NotifyFilters.DirectoryName;
watcher.IncludeSubdirectories = true;
// Add event handlers.
//watcher.Changed += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged); //Fires everytime files is changed (mulitple times in copy operation)
watcher.Created += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged);
watcher.Deleted += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged);
watcher.Renamed += new RenamedEventHandler(OnRenamed);
// Begin watching.
watcher.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
// Wait for the user to quit the program.
Console.WriteLine("Press \'q\' to quit the sample.");
while (Console.Read() != 'q') ;
}
// Define the event handlers.
private static void OnChanged(object source, FileSystemEventArgs e)
{
// Specify what is done when a file is changed, created, or deleted.
Console.WriteLine("File: " + e.FullPath + " " + e.ChangeType);
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.Run(new Feedback.Form1(e.FullPath));//Here I am opening new form for feedback
}
private static void OnRenamed(object source, RenamedEventArgs e)
{
// Specify what is done when a file is renamed.
Console.WriteLine("File: {0} renamed to {1}", e.OldFullPath, e.FullPath);
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.Run(new Feedback.Form1(e.FullPath));//Here I am opening new form for feedback
}
}
