FileSystemEventArgs.FullPath Property

public:
 property System::String ^ FullPath { System::String ^ get(); };

public string FullPath { get; }

member this.FullPath : string

Public ReadOnly Property FullPath As String

The path of the affected file or directory.

The following example demonstrates the FullPath property. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the FileSystemEventArgs class.

//  This method is called when a file is created, changed, or deleted.
private static void OnChanged(object source, FileSystemEventArgs e)
{
    //  Show that a file has been created, changed, or deleted.
    WatcherChangeTypes wct = e.ChangeType;
    Console.WriteLine("File {0} {1}", e.FullPath, wct.ToString());
}

' This method is called when a file is created, changed, or deleted.
Private Sub OnChanged(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As FileSystemEventArgs)

    ' Show that a file has been created, changed, or deleted.
    Dim wct As WatcherChangeTypes = e.ChangeType
    Console.WriteLine("File {0} {1}", e.FullPath, wct.ToString())
End Sub

This property returns the same path that FileSystemWatcher is initialized with, even if it's a relative path.
