Re: Trigger on IFS Folder?

Jerry,

You could try journalling. There are some APIs that can be used. Carsten Flensburg wrote some utilities some years ago.

This is just a matter of curiosity. I have applied triggers to database
files, but I was wondering if it was possible to apply a trigger to a
non-QSYS folder in the IFS? That is, possible application, which I'm
thinking about, is if a file is dropped into \FolderJA could I have a
trigger program that would automatically be invoked to process files in the
folder?



In the past I just had a NEP that checked every, oh, 15-60 minutes to see if
there was anything there.



Thanks.
