CA 2375517

A file stored on a storage media can be updated even while it is being accessed by an application and without requiring a reboot. In one embodiment of the invention a file stored on a storage media, having a file name listed in a directory, is updated by placing an updated version of the file on the storage media. A listing for the updated version of the file is added to the directory under a temporary name. The original file name listed in the directory is changed to a different name, and the temporary name is changed to the former name of the original file.

L'invention porte sur un fichier stocké sur un support de données et qui peut être mis à jour même lorsqu'on y accède par une application et sans avoir besoin de le relancer. Selon une réalisation de cette invention, un fichier stocké sur un support de données et dont le nom est inscrit dans un répertoire, est mis à jour en plaçant sur le support une version mise à jour du fichier. Un listage de la version mise à jour du fichier est ajouté au répertoire sous un nom provisoire. Le nom du fichier d'origine inscrit dans le répertoire est modifié, et le nom provisoire remplace l'ancien nom du fichier d'origine.
