check file opened or not?

[George2]

Hello everyone,


On Windows platform, which API could be used to check whether a file is opened (either by other thread or process or even the same thread) or not?

C++ is fine.


thanks in advance,
George

Look at ::OpenFile() (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365430.aspx) with OF_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE.
