Handling multiple Change Events in FileSystemWatcher

Question

I have the following sub:

  Private Sub Watcher_Changed(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As FileSystemEventArgs)
        If Path.GetExtension(e.Name) = \".         


        

Answer 1

I ran into the exact situation before, and ended up implementing a timer mechanism to wait for the file to "settle", or for write events to stop coming in for x amount of time.

A bit kludgy, but it worked.
