Folder Monitor

Post by hua »

Anyone knows of a free folder monitor that I can get a hold of? Specifically I want to be able to monitor when my app creates its temporary files which is in the form of tmp?????.dbf/ntx. It seems a lot of functions are not cleaning themselves up leaving a lot of these temp files.

TIA

Hua,

you can use the file monitor filemon.exe from SysInternals. It monitors any kind of file access from all applications.
kind regards
Stefan

Hi Antonio, Stefan,
Sorry for the late reply. Was on leave for a week.

Antonio, I'm using xHarbour build 1.2.1 Rev 6406. But the temp files that I was referring to are generated by my reporting routines that creates a lot of temp indexes or dbfs.

Stefan, thank you for the tip. I'll give filemon a try
