We just started running in to an odd problem with a FileSystemWatcher where the call to Dispose() appears to be hanging. This is code that has been working without any problems for a while but we just upgraded to .NET3.5 SP1 so I'm trying to find out if anyone else has seen this behavior. Here is the code that creates the FileSystemWatcher:
if (this.fileWatcher == null)
{
this.fileWatcher = new FileSystemWatcher();
}
this.fileWatcher.BeginInit();
this.fileWatcher.IncludeSubdirectories = true;
this.fileWatcher.Path = project.Directory;
this.fileWatcher.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
this.fileWatcher.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.Attributes;
this.fileWatcher.Changed += delegate(object s, FileSystemEventArgs args)
{
FileWatcherFileChanged(args);
};
this.fileWatcher.EndInit();
The way this is being used is to update the state image of a TreeNode object (adjusted slightly to remove business specific information):
private void FileWatcherFileChanged(FileSystemEventArgs args)
{
if (this.TreeView != null)
{
if (this.TreeView.InvokeRequired)
{
FileWatcherFileChangedCallback d = new FileWatcherFileChangedCallback(FileWatcherFileChanged);
this.TreeView.Invoke(d, new object[]
{
args
});
}
else
{
switch (args.ChangeType)
{
case WatcherChangeTypes.Changed:
if (String.CompareOrdinal(this.project.FullName, args.FullPath) == 0)
{
this.StateImageKey = GetStateImageKey();
}
else
{
projectItemTreeNode.StateImageKey = GetStateImageKey();
}
break;
}
}
}
}
Is there something we're missing or is this an anomoly from .NET3.5 SP1?
