[Dev-C++] filemonitoring as a windows service.. help appreciated!

[<ca...@kr...>]

hi dev-cpp-users,

I am currently writing a little app, that shall act on changes to a
known file.

I am pretty new to windows programming so please be gentle..

I wrote a service so far, and at least on nt4 it
installs/uninstalls/runs just smooth.
down in main.c I have my old code without the service parts which ran
also.

the problem I found is that the app does not get notified abound
filechanges (service parameters '-fs c:\\temp' always given).
instead it does write lots of WAIT_FAILED notifications to the logfiel
(c:\temp\test.txt) a bunch at once without any hint what caused them
(even if no changes take place...)

I guess the mistake I made is somewhere in ca_action() but I can not
understand what it is..


 
regards
/Christian                   mailto:ca...@kr...
