Hello list,
I don't know if there's any interest / work in progress on this, but
noticing that the new Gio implementation lacks a directory monitor
for windows I wrote one (patch against 2.15.4 attached, should work
on 2.15.5 too)
I had to write something along these lines for a proprietary
application a few years ago. I found that I needed to track the mapping
of short names to long names for MS-Windows since the kernel has a
habit of reporting file actions using the names passed in by the
application. Thus if an application deletes a file using its short name
by the time we get to hear about it, it's too late to ask the kernel
what its long name was. I don't see anything in your code to do this.
Cheers,
Ali.
