a stored procedure in C# creates a file (the file cant be deleted)

hi,
I wrote a dll in c#. It creates a bitmap file. the dll is appended to sql
server 2005 as an assembly. when I call that stored procedure it creates a
bitmap file on my local disk. the problem is, that the file cant be deleted.
I get error saying that the file is being used by another person or
application. but it isnt!. moreover, when I create an exe file and launch it,
everything works ok. then, the exe creates the bitmap which can be easy
deleted.
how to check what application is using the bitmap (a resource)? what is the
difference in creating the bitmap by launching a stored sql procedure than by
launching an exe application?
Hello Chris,
FileMon from WinTernals comes to mind. See http://www.winternals.com/
Chances are that the SQL Server is holding a lock on that file because you
didn't close the file handle on it. Can you post the bit of code that writes
the bitmap to the file?
Thanks,
