Using python 2.7 on windows 7 64 bit machine. How to get a file close event:
- when file is opened in a new process of file opener (like notepad, wordpad which opens file everytime in new process of wordpad)
- when file is opened in a tab of file opener (like notepad++, which opens all files in new tab but there exist only a single process of notepad++ running)
So, how to get file close event in above cases? Is it possible to achieve above cases through a common code? I am dealing with different file types.
It can also be solved by this scheme, when a file opens, a certain process handles it. And when it closes, all processes which controls it are also lost. So, we can know whether a file is closed or not.
I posted this in this q&a, and tried with watchdog, pywatch and Watcher but not able to get file close event
