I have an application where I am looking for a text file and if there are any changes made to the file I am using the OnChanged
eventhandler to handle the event. I am using the NotifyFilters.LastWriteTime
but still the event is getting fired twice. Here is the code.
public void Initialize()
{
FileSystemWatcher _fileWatcher = new FileSystemWatcher();
_fileWatcher.Path = "C:\\Folder";
_fileWatcher.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.LastWrite;
_fileWatcher.Filter = "Version.txt";
_fileWatcher.Changed += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged);
_fileWatcher.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
}
private void OnChanged(object source, FileSystemEventArgs e)
{
.......
}
In my case the OnChanged
is called twice, when I change the text file version.txt
and save it.
