LPRun.exe . . . . how to tell if process finished
"C:\Program Files (x86)\LINQPad5\LPRun.exe" -format=csv C:\Users\Me\LinqPadDemo\GetData.linq > OutputData.csv
In the above example, a script is executed and data is dumped out as a csv file. The file can take several minutes to output. Once the data is written to file, I then import it into a database.
Is there are way of telling if the file has been completely written so that I avoid any chance of attempting to import the data while the file is incomplete?
Hope that makes sense!

LPRun is supposed to execute synchronously. So when the command finishes, the csv file should be ready. Is it behaving differently?

You could export to a temp file and rename the file afterwards.
LPRun.exe -format=csv GetData.linq > OutputData.csv.temp move OutputData.csv.temp OutputData.csv /y
