troubles with Gnome::Vfs::Transfer::transfer()

[Sergio Perticone <g4ll0ws gmail com>]

I'm sending this here because gnomemm list seems to be died, so sorry if
it's a little bit off topic.

I'm studying libgnomevfsmm, but I've a problem with this example code:

#include <libgnomevfsmm/init.h>
#include <libgnomevfsmm/transfer.h>

void foo(const Glib::ustring& src_path,
         const Glib::ustring& target_path)
{
        using namespace Gnome;

        Vfs::init();

        try {
                Vfs::Transfer::transfer(src_path, target_path,
                                        Vfs::XFER_FOLLOW_LINKS,
                                        Vfs::XFER_ERROR_MODE_QUERY,
                                        Vfs::XFER_OVERWRITE_MODE_SKIP);
        }
        catch(Vfs::exception& e) {
                g_print("Failed: %s\n", e.what().data());
        }
}

transfer() throws _always_ an exception. e.what() returns "Operation
interrupted".
I really don't know what's wrong with that... anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

s.
