Semaphore file wildcard deletion

Hi

I've noticed that when I set up a file watch job to watch a wildcard eg \\server\directory\*.txt , the job fires fine, but the delete, rename, or move I set for after job run doesn't actually do anything.

It works fine on a regular file reference.

Design or a bug?

Thanks

It is my impression, that this feature doesn't support file masks. It can handle multiple files only if their names are explicitly specified, for example

\\server\directory\1.txt,\\server\directory\2.txt,\\server\directory\3.txt

Yet, you can always add "on job start" notification action and use either program type action like "cmd /C copy" or JAL script action like "FileCopyEx( source_with_mask, destination, counter )"

Yep, true but when the wildcard evaluates to a single file it doesn't handle that either.

It doesn't attempt to resolve file names. It only checks whether specified files exist or not. How many of them are there and what their names are really 2 additional questions it is not designed to answer.
