Edit Question
Title
Body
OK: I'm implementing File Sharing in an iPhone OS app, and of course this means filesystem monitoring. Yay! Basically, the OS copies and/or deletes from and to a directory I can access when the user manipulates files into my app's section in iTunes. Thus, I need to monitor the directory for changes presumably via an efficient mechanism like a kqueue() . How do I implement this so that I know that the files have finished copying? I was thinking along the lines of: Monitor with kqueue() . At event, start (or reset existing) timeout. When timeout elapses, do work. but is there a better way of doing it that ensures I'm not stepping over the OS's toes?
