What's the simplest way of blocking a thread until a file has been unlocked and is accessible for reading and renaming? EG: Is there a WaitOnFile() somewhere in the framework?

The kind of data that works well in a spreadsheet or database, but is nasty in XML. :) NetCDF seems like a great option for a file format. However, my work is in C# and there is no "official" NetCDF implementation avail...

Are there any standards, or...

I am creating a downloading application and I wish to preallocate room on the harddrive for the files before they are actually downloaded as they could potentially be rather large, and noone likes to see "This drive is full, please delete some files and try again." So, in that light, I wrote this. // Quick, and very dirty System.IO.File...

A setting needs to be saved by people using the web application gui, and then a console app and some test projects need to access the same file. Where should I put the file and how to access it?
