Hi again all, Does anyone know if there's an easy way of creating an event handler to wait for a file to be released by an external application?
I'm using an ExclusiveLock model on a RollingFileAppender. The problem is if the file is opened by an external program that enforces a lock on the file, for example Word, when I try and lock my appender I cannot. I was wondering if there was a watcher or handler that might be able use to watch for when that file gets released so I can lock onto it as soon as it does. I know if I use a MinimalLock model this problem is avoided but I would prefer to lock the file for my own use. Any ides?
