[Neil Benn] | I have a job where I need to move a file on a trigger from | another program, however this program may or may not have finished | writing to the file when I need to move it (I have no way of changing | this behavior). Therefore I need to determine if a file is | still being written to, this is on a windows XP box.
[Hand-waving answer, faute de mieux] I believe you could do this by combining win32file.CreateFile and win32file.LockFile from pywin32. Looks that way to me, anyhow. But I haven't tried it (and don't have time to experiment at the mo).
