RenamedEventArgs Class
Provides data for the Renamed event.
Namespace: System.IO
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The RenamedEventArgs type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ChangeType | Gets the type of directory event that occurred. (Inherited from FileSystemEventArgs.) |
![]() | FullPath | Gets the fully qualifed path of the affected file or directory. (Inherited from FileSystemEventArgs.) |
![]() | Name | Gets the name of the affected file or directory. (Inherited from FileSystemEventArgs.) |
![]() | OldFullPath | Gets the previous fully qualified path of the affected file or directory. |
![]() | OldName | Gets the old name of the affected file or directory. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
This class inherits from FileSystemEventArgs and extends it by adding an old name field and an old full path field to specify the previous name and full path of the affected file or directory.
The following example shows how to create a FileSystemWatcher to monitor file changes (creates, deletes, renames, changes) occurring on a disk drive. The example also shows how to properly receive error notifications.
using System; using System.IO; class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { // Create a FileSystemWatcher to monitor all files on drive C. FileSystemWatcher fsw = new FileSystemWatcher("C:\\"); // Watch for changes in LastAccess and LastWrite times, and // the renaming of files or directories. fsw.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.LastAccess | NotifyFilters.LastWrite | NotifyFilters.FileName |NotifyFilters.DirectoryName; // Register a handler that gets called when a // file is created, changed, or deleted. fsw.Changed += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged); fsw.Created += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged); fsw.Deleted += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged); // Register a handler that gets called when a file is renamed. fsw.Renamed += new RenamedEventHandler(OnRenamed); // Register a handler that gets called if the // FileSystemWatcher needs to report an error. fsw.Error += new ErrorEventHandler(OnError); // Begin watching. fsw.EnableRaisingEvents = true; Console.WriteLine("Press \'Enter\' to quit the sample."); Console.ReadLine(); } // This method is called when a file is created, changed, or deleted. private static void OnChanged(object source, FileSystemEventArgs e) { // Show that a file has been created, changed, or deleted. WatcherChangeTypes wct = e.ChangeType; Console.WriteLine("File {0} {1}", e.FullPath, wct.ToString()); } // This method is called when a file is renamed. private static void OnRenamed(object source, RenamedEventArgs e) { // Show that a file has been renamed. WatcherChangeTypes wct = e.ChangeType; Console.WriteLine("File {0} {2} to {1}", e.OldFullPath, e.FullPath, wct.ToString()); } // This method is called when the FileSystemWatcher detects an error. private static void OnError(object source, ErrorEventArgs e) { // Show that an error has been detected. Console.WriteLine("The FileSystemWatcher has detected an error"); // Give more information if the error is due to an internal buffer overflow. if (e.GetException().GetType() == typeof(InternalBufferOverflowException)) { // This can happen if Windows is reporting many file system events quickly // and internal buffer of the FileSystemWatcher is not large enough to handle this // rate of events. The InternalBufferOverflowException error informs the application // that some of the file system events are being lost. Console.WriteLine(("The file system watcher experienced an internal buffer overflow: " + e.GetException().Message)); } } }
