| Subject: | Doesn't pickup changes in newly created directories with Linux::Inotify2 |
First, nice module. Thanks for releasing it.
When using Linux::Inotify2, changes to newly created sub directories of
a watched directory are not reported.
For example, if we are watching /tmp/one and we mkdir /tmp/one/sub, we
get a event. If we then create /tmp/one/sub/file, no notification is sent.
See the attached script for an example of this. It works fine for
Mac::FSEvents. I'm not sure about the simple scan implementation.
Thanks,
Mark
