QFile or QDir rename()

[maxpower]

When I use on of the rename functions and a file is open by an outside program, a new file is created with the new name instead of the rename function returning false as i had hoped. Is there a way around this? A way to check if the file is open elsewhere? I tried using QFile:: open() but that still opened and then corrupted my file.

Qt 4.4.3 on Windows 2003.
