Hello List, I want to write an applet that reads a text log file generated by a third party application (TPA).
The TPA keeps the file open for writing all the time it is running. It is possible for me to open the log file in notepad and read all the entries up untill I opened the file. Pressing F5 refreshes the file in notepad and I can then read any new lines that have been added. I'm guessing notepad is using some kind of file copy & read technique (that's why it's not real time). If I try to open or copy the file in Delphi, not unsurprisingly I get a "used by another process" error. What can I use to copy/open the file?
