Monitoring a file copy operation initiated from the command line
I want to control the copy file function using Delphi.
I can do this in windows explorer with shell notification.
My problem is copying the file using the command line.
How can I monitor the progress of an operation on a copy file that has been run on the command line using Delphi?

I have personally used these two:
- When using .NET, use the System.IO.FileSystemWatcher class .
- If using Win32, use a combination of FindFirstChangeNotification , FindNextChangeNotification, and FindCloseChangeNotification .
Ah - just figured out that part of your Win32 answer is also answered here and this answer contains some sample code.
There is also another Win32 way to do this : using ReadDirectoryChangesW , but I haven't personally used it.
Good luck!
