I have noticed alot of "Cannot access file because it is being used by another process" errors in my fogbugz reports. I am geussing this might have to do with the file not being closed after it has been opened. Or not being closed after a save. Can anyone verify if this is my issue and advise me a better way to go about it.
On form load this file is opened, and on close the file is saved.
Form Load
If IO.File.Exists(myCoolFile) Then '// check if file exists.
Dim myCoolFileLines() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines(myCoolFile) '// load your file as a string array.
For Each line As String In myCoolFileLines '// loop thru array list.
Dim lineArray() As String = line.Split("#") '// separate by "#" character.
'Dim newItem As New ListViewItem(lineArray(0)) '// add text Item.
' ListView1.Items.Add(newItem) '// add Item to ListView.
ListView1.Items.Add(lineArray(0)).Tag = (lineArray(1))
Next
Else
If Not File.Exists(myCoolFile) Then
File.Create(myCoolFile)
End If
Form Close
Dim myWriter As New IO.StreamWriter(myCoolFile)
For Each myItem As ListViewItem In ListView1.Items
myWriter.WriteLine(myItem.Text & "#" & myItem.Tag) '// write Item and SubItem.
Next
myWriter.Close()
A better solution would be to use a database.
Here is code to check if the files is open by another process (you could perhaps wait a small amount of time and retry saving again once or twice):
Private Sub IsFileOpen(ByVal file As FileInfo)
Dim stream As FileStream = Nothing
Try
stream = file.Open(FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite, FileShare.None)
Catch ex As Exception
If TypeOf ex Is IOException AndAlso IsFileLocked(ex) Then
' do something here, either close the file if you have a handle or as a last resort terminate the process - which could cause corruption and lose data
End If
End Try
End Sub
Private Shared Function IsFileLocked(exception As Exception) As Boolean
Dim errorCode As Integer = Marshal.GetHRForException(exception) And ((1 << 16) - 1)
Return errorCode = 32 OrElse errorCode = 33
End Function
