Capture file, folder moving/renaming in Catalog Pane/View?

Hey all,

I am completely uneducated for the Pro SDK, but I'm looking at dipping my toes in for a project and wanted to know if it was at all possible.

I'd like to be able to track when a user renames or moves a file or folder in the Catalog, with the end goal of having some sort of table with the before/after moves for that session.

Is this sort of thing possible?

Thanks!

Hi,

It could be done without ArcGIS Pro SDK. .NET has FileSystemWatcher class, which listens to the file system change notifications and raises events when a directory, or file in a directory, changes.

Sa-weeeet. Thanks, I'll have to experiment.
