In case people are taking notes for "inotify ng" I have one improvement request. Add some way to know when a move event is complete. Currently if you're just wathing the source or target directory of a move you only get one of the MOVED_FROM/MOVED_TO events. Not knowing whether you'll eventually receive the other half of the event is problematic when you want to treat such unpaired events the same as DELETE/CREATE events. -- Ville Syrjälä syrjala@sci.fi http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
