Hi,
I'm running a test with FileSystemWatcher on linux. My problem is:
- I never get "rename" events but "removed" and "added" event pairs
- I also get a huge number of "modified" events for files I think no one
is touching (I'm seeing that on a huge number of source files on my
workspace, files that are not being edited (unless they're being acessed
by "beagle" ... :-P, so just forget about this one)
Also, one question: Inotify is able to *correctly* report moved files,
isn't it? I mean, not like on windows where the *sad* FileSystemWatcher
implementation is not able to track moved files, right? So, wouldn't it
be better to modify the InotifyWatcher implementation to correctly fill
moved events (I know it won't be the *standard* way, but it would be
better, wouldn't it?)
