hi all , In the application i am writing , there is necessity for me to take note
of changes in a particular (predefined ) folder. The (privileaged ) users of my app
will upload Excel files to the said folder. (which my application should read and
store in a DB for all others to see ) My first attempt was to write a win32
console application (in C/C++ ) which will be triggered by AT batch file command .
Later i figured out that there is something called Task Scheduler API to
programmatically assign tasks etc. That means using lot of COM interface etc. Even if
it is getting triggered one has to write Wininet API based code and an ASP.net page to
handle HTTP file upload. This prompted me to have another look at it. Can we make
IIS or ASP.net engine to execute a particular assembly (in the case of asp.net ) or
DLL (at ISAPI/IIS level ) at regular interval ? (without using Task scheduler API
code from my DLL ) . This should be done declaratively by changing a line or two in
config files. writing a HTTP module will unnecessarily add some (albiet minor )
overhead on the system. What is the safest (and robust ) method to achieve my
objective ?
