Struct gio::FileMonitor

pub struct FileMonitor { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Monitors a file or directory for changes.

To obtain a FileMonitor for a file or directory, use FileExt::monitor(), FileExt::monitor_file(), or FileExt::monitor_directory().

To get informed about changes to the file or directory you are monitoring, connect to the changed signal. The signal will be emitted in the [thread-default main context][g-main-context-push-thread-default] of the thread that the monitor was created in (though if the global default main context is blocked, this may cause notifications to be blocked even if the thread-default context is still running).

This is an Abstract Base Class, you cannot instantiate it.

Signals

changed

Emitted when file has been changed.

If using FileMonitorFlags::WATCH_MOVES on a directory monitor, and the information is available (and if supported by the backend), event_type may be FileMonitorEvent::Renamed, FileMonitorEvent::MovedIn or FileMonitorEvent::MovedOut.

In all cases file will be a child of the monitored directory. For renames, file will be the old name and other_file is the new name. For “moved in” events, file is the name of the file that appeared and other_file is the old name that it was moved from (in another directory). For “moved out” events, file is the name of the file that used to be in this directory and other_file is the name of the file at its new location.

It makes sense to treat FileMonitorEvent::MovedIn as equivalent to FileMonitorEvent::Created and FileMonitorEvent::MovedOut as equivalent to FileMonitorEvent::Deleted, with extra information. FileMonitorEvent::Renamed is equivalent to a delete/create pair. This is exactly how the events will be reported in the case that the FileMonitorFlags::WATCH_MOVES flag is not in use.

If using the deprecated flag FileMonitorFlags::SEND_MOVED flag and event_type is FileMonitorEvent::Moved, file will be set to a File containing the old path, and other_file will be set to a File containing the new path.

In all the other cases, other_file will be set to None.
