VBScript & C # Read / Write XML Without Locking a File

Scenario:

  • Network user is a member of the domain
  • Group Policy runs VBScript
  • VBScript reads from XML
  • VBScript performs operations based on information obtained from XML

What VBScript methods should I use so that on a network with multiple users accessing XML at the same time, I will not be prone to file locking issues?

If I made a C # program to read and modify an existing XML file from a network location while working (at the same time XML is being read), what C # methods should I use to read / write XML without blocking problems?

  • add all relevant event handlers to find out about current updates, etc.
  • Call RunWorkerAsync to start a read / write operation.

And vbs might look like ...

Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.6.0") xmlDoc.Async = False bReturn = False Do Until bReturn WScript.Sleep 3500 bReturn = xmlDoc.Load(".../A1.xml") Loop '...
