已有机制到位为此，称为 FileSystemWatcher Class [ ^ ]。

而不是试图轮询日期我建议你改用FileSystemWatcher并处理Changed事件。请查看此参考，其中包含一个示例： https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/ library / system.io.filesystemwatcher [ ^ ]

Hey everyone,
I have one folder which has one csv file. I want to read this file when it is modified or update, I want to create loop that it waits for file update and when file update i.e. its date modified changes , quickly read that file. and again wait.

Is that possible?

I written following code but it does not work proper. Correct me.Thank you.

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    for (int p = 0; p >= 0; p++)
    {
        DateTime dt = File.GetLastWriteTime(filepath);
        DateTime date = File.GetCreationTime(filepath);

        if (File.Exists(filepath))
        {
            if (date != dt)
            {
                task();
            }
        }
    }
}

public void task()
{
    using (FileStream fs = new     FileStream(filepath,FileMode.Open,FileAccess.Read))
    {
        using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(fs))
        {
            string[] line = sr.ReadLine().Split(',');
          textBox1.Text = "File update"+ Environment.NewLine;
        }
    }
}

There is already a mechanism in place for this, called the FileSystemWatcher Class[^].

Follow the link and have a look at the examples.

Instead of attempting to poll the date I suggest you use a FileSystemWatcher instead and handle the "Changed" event. Check this reference which includes an example: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.filesystemwatcher[^]
