Continues Monitoring Files

[part0]

Hi,

I need some help.

I will like to monitor files in a specific folder.

The concept is whenever a file is added/created inside a folder. It will send an alert or notification.
The monitoring is a continues process once I build the code.

Is there any examples for me to look at it or do I need to write it in other programming language?

Currently, using Visual C++.

Thanks whoever can help.

Depending on your needs you may consider using one of the WMI classes: CIM_DirectoryContainsFile or CIM_DataFile. It requires some experience in using COM interfaces.
