File manipulation locks files

[stillinlife101]

const string Dellstring = "MarkedForDeletion";

private void RefreshFiles(string Path, Customer[] Cust)
{
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(Path);
FileInfo[] fi = di.GetFiles("cust");
DObject doFilenames = new DObject();
foreach (FileInfo f in fi)
if (new Customer(f.FullName).Name == DelString)
{
doFilenames.AddObject(f.FullName);
}
//Here, I would like to delete the files that have been
//added to the doFilenames list
//How do I force di and fi to unlock the files?
}

What do you mean by "locks files" ?

 

[stillinlife101]

It's using them. That makes it so I can't delete them. If I try in code, it gives me a file permissions error.

Something must be wrong in " DObject doFilenames = new DObject();"

I tried myself (to get files from a dir and delete them) and i had no problem

There's no file manipulation in DObjects.

class DObject
{
Object[] objects;
public DObject()
{
}

public void AddObject(object o)
{
int x = objects.GetUpperBound(0);
if (x == -1)
{
objects = new object[0];
objects[0] = 0;
}
else
{
Object[] tempO = objects;
objects = new object[x + 1];
for (int y = 0; y < tempO.GetUpperBound(0); y++)
objects[y] = tempO[y];
objects[x + 1] = o;
}
}

public void RemoveObject(int Index)
{
if (objects.GetUpperBound(0) != -1)
{
if (objects.GetUpperBound(0) == 0)
{
objects = null;
}
else
{
Object[] to = new object[objects.GetUpperBound(0) - 1];
for (int x = 0; x < to.GetUpperBound(0); x++)
{
if (x < Index)
to[x] = objects[x];
if (x > Index)
to[x - 1] = objects[x];
}

}
}
}

}

Try stepping through each line and see which file is locked. Maybe a file is indeed locked by another process.
