[Mono-dev] Re: [Mono-list] FileSystemWatcher status

[Stefano Incontri]

>From the first tests, I can see that FileSystemWatcher perfectly works
with files or folders, but not with subdirectories.
I mean, if I set FileSystemWatcher.IncludeSubdirectories = true it hangs
up while receiving events from inside the first folder, with the
following exception :

Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index is less
than 0 or more than or equal to the list count.
Parameter name: index
4
in <0x00071> System.Collections.ArrayList:get_Item (Int32 index)
in <0x004c0> System.IO.FAMWatcher:ProcessEvents ()
in <0x00061> System.IO.FAMWatcher:Monitor ()
in (wrapper delegate-invoke) System.MulticastDelegate:invoke_void ()

Instead, if I disable subdirectories or copy only files, it works.
Could be helpful for you to understand the problem?

Thanks
Stefano
