    Hi,



    I have a Carbon application that looks into a folder for a file (hot
    folder). When a file is being copied in the hot folder, my application
    starts to read the file even if it's not finished being copied. I use FSpOpenDF(., fsWrPerm, .) and it returns without error. This is my problem. I need to know if the file is already open, so I can wait until the file
    is
    completely written and closed.



    So how I can know if the file was finished copying?

    (runs on OS X 10.2)






    You would have increased your chance to get an answer if you had posted in comp.sys.mac.programer.help...

    Files that are being transferred or copied have their file type
    beginning with "bzy", so check for that.
