hi all,
I'm using VS2005 to develop my smart device application for windows
ce. Is there a FileSystemWatcher class or an equivalent method to
listen in my folder when a file is created ?
In internet there is a OpenNetCF package but is not free.

thanks
stefano
 
The community edition is free
(http://www.opennetcf.com/CompactFramework/Products/SmartDeviceFramewo...).
You get everything minus the source code and the designer additions. Nothing
which would hinder you from using the FileSystemWatcher.

thanks for your answer ..
Is it possible that this object is not fired event when create in the
path file or folder ?
my code:
FileSystemWatcher fs = new FileSystemWatcher(@"\");
fs.Created += new
FileSystemEventHandler(this.fileSystemWatcher1_Created);

private void fileSystemWatcher1_Created(object sender,
FileSystemEventArgs e)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("ciao");
}
 
You need to set
fs.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
also set the notify filters to the types of change you want to watch:-
fs.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.LastAccess | NotifyFilters.LastWrite |
NotifyFilters.FileName | NotifyFilters.DirectoryName;

It follows the same design as the version in the full .NET framework so you
can check out the help files for examples.

ok, but If I call fs.EnableRaisingEvents = true; my program crash
"Impossibile trovare la DLL PInvoke 'aygshell.dll'." --- Impossible
found DLL Pinvoke 'aygshell.dll'.
Why ?
 
I've already explained this. Try to keep your questions on a single topic
in 1 thread so people can follow them and archive searches can turn up more
meaningful results.
