Hi all, I'm writing some code that monitors a directory for the appearance of files from a workflow. When those files appear I write a command file to a device that tells the device how to process the file. The appearance of the command file triggers the device to grab the original file. My problem is I don't want to write the command file to the device until the original file from the workflow has been copied completely. Since these files are large, my program has a good chance of scanning the directory while they are mid-copy, so I need to determine which files are finished being copied and which are still mid-copy.
I haven't seen anything on Google talking about this, and I don't see an obvious way of doing this using the os.stat() method on the filepath. Anyone have any ideas about how I might accomplish this? Thanks in advance! Doug -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
