Came across the following jade script recently and thought it might be of use to others...
constants
STATUS_TIMEOUT : Integer = 258;
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_FILE_NAME : Integer = 1;
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_DIR_NAME : Integer = 2;
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_ATTRIBUTES : Integer = 4;
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_SIZE : Integer = 8;
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_LAST_WRITE : Integer = 16;
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_LAST_ACCESS: Integer = 32;
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_CREATION : Integer = 64;
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_SECURITY : Integer = 256;
vars
bResult : Boolean;
handle : Integer;
filter : Integer;
waitTime : Integer;
result : Integer;
path : String;
count : Integer;
string : String;
begin
path := 'c:\temp';
filter := FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_FILE_NAME;
// filter := FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_ATTRIBUTES;
handle := call findFirstChangeNotification(path, false, filter);
write 'Waiting with handle ' & handle.String;
waitTime := 60000;
read string;
foreach count in 1 to 10 do
result := call waitForSingleObject(handle, waitTime);
if result <> STATUS_TIMEOUT then
//
// Do your code here
//
bResult := call findNextChangeNotification (handle);
string := 'in loop';
read string;
write ' ' & app.actualTime.String & ' Result ' & result.String;
else
write ' ' & app.actualTime.String & ' Result STATUS_TIMEOUT';
endif;
endforeach;
epilog
write 'Ending with handle ' & handle.String;
bResult := call findCloseChangeNotification (handle);
end;
You'll need to have the following external functions defined too...
findFirstChangeNotification(path : String [ 256 ] io; subTree : Boolean; filter : Integer) : Integer is FindFirstChangeNotificationA in kernel32;
waitForSingleObject(handle : Integer; waitTime : Integer) : Integer is WaitForSingleObject in kernel32;
findNextChangeNotification(handle : Integer) : Boolean is FindNextChangeNotification in kernel32;
findCloseChangeNotification(handle : Integer) : Boolean is FindCloseChangeNotification in kernel32;
