hi i am trying to create a cache of digitized values of around 100 image files in a folder..In my program i would like to know from time to time if a new image has been added or removed from the folder..
one scheme suggested was to create a string from the names of sorted image files and give it as the cache name.. ie ,if i have one.jpg,three.jpg,new.jpg , i will name the cache as 'newonethree.cache' and everytime i want to check if new image added/removed i wd create a string from the contents of folder and compare it with cachename. this scheme is ok for a small number of files,.. can someone suggest a better way? i know it is a general programming problem..but i wish to know if a python solution exists -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
