监控特定文件夹的事件：三种解决方法汇总
LDBIVR程序中要监视特定文件夹的文件落地或者删除事件，本来要用SHELL中的事件通知机制，后来因为要考虑到各种意外事件，如服务意外退出、服务器崩溃等，遂作罢。
对于目录事件异步通知，大致有三个方法：
调用Windows的api函数ReadDirectoryChanges监视指定目录中文件（推荐使用），这个使用异步IO：
The ReadDirectoryChangesW function retrieves information that describes the changes within a directory.
To track changes on a volume, see change journals.
BOOL ReadDirectoryChangesW(
HANDLE hDirectory,
LPVOID lpBuffer,
DWORD nBufferLength,
BOOL bWatchSubtree,
DWORD dwNotifyFilter,
LPDWORD lpBytesReturned,
LPOVERLAPPED lpOverlapped,
LPOVERLAPPED_COMPLETION_ROUTINE lpCompletionRoutine
);
或者用SHChangeNotifyRegister和SHChangeNotifyDeregister来注册事件SHChangeNotify：
SHChangeNotify Function
Notifies the system of an event that an application has performed. An application should use this function if it performs an action that may affect the Shell.
Syntax
void SHChangeNotify(
LONG wEventId,
UINT uFlags,
LPCVOID dwItem1,
LPCVOID dwItem2
);
这个SHELL事件，有人这么介绍（http://qk.5nx.com/article_view.asp?id=11）。
或者调用API函数－FindFirstChangeNotification 、FindCloseChangeNotification、FindNextChangeNotification 和WaitForSingleObject ：
FindFirstChangeNotification
The FindFirstChangeNotification function creates a change notification handle and sets up initial change notification filter conditions. A wait on a notification handle succeeds when a change matching the filter conditions occurs in the specified directory or subtree. However, the function does not indicate the change that satisfied the wait condition.
To retrieve information about the specific change as part of the notification, use the ReadDirectoryChangesW function.
HANDLE FindFirstChangeNotification(
LPCTSTR lpPathName,
BOOL bWatchSubtree,
DWORD dwNotifyFilter
);
著名的FileMon工具用的是虚拟驱动。
