Title: How to find out whether a file is open or not by any other application/process
Post by: yogish on August 13, 2008, 10:15:18 AM

Hi,

I have few files in a folder.Before deleting the folder i want to check whether there are any files in the folder which are opened by some application.
Is there any function which can help me in this?
i cannot use the "lsof" command.

Thanks,
Yogish.
