The new delete functionality represents a more efficient way for file handling with no access denied exceptions in normal circumstances and less file downloads from ContentServer, no leaking files in the temp folder, and clean logs.

How does it work?

The platform downloads a file just once and counts how many users are using it. When they reach zero the file is marked for deletion. Through a predefined time, the platform checks the files marked for deletion and deletes them.

User-defined settings

There is a possibility some of the settings to be modified through web.config (c:\program files (x86)\docuware\web\platform) Firstly, the section has to be defined in configuration/configSections:

1<section name="ReferenceCounterConfig" type="DocuWare.Platform.Implementation.ReferenceCounting.ReferenceCounterConfiguration, DocuWare.PlatformImplementation" />

Then the section has to be added and it has the format:

1<ReferenceCounterConfig intervalToStayAlive="00:10:00" intervalForDeleting="00:05:30" triesToDelete="5" triesToLock="3" intervalBetweenTwoTriesToLock="300">2</ReferenceCounterConfig>

There are 5 properties that could be modified:

Timespan

00:05:30
