Description-en: scalable directory and file change notification
inotify (inode notify) is a Linux kernel subsystem that monitors events in
filesystems and reports those events to applications in real time.
.
inotify can be used to monitor individual files or directories. When a
directory is monitored, inotify will return events for the directory itself
and for files inside the directory.
.
This module implements an interface to the Linux 2.6.13 and later inotify
directory and file change notification system.
.
It has a number of advantages over the Linux::Inotify module:
- It is portable (Linux::Inotify only works on x86).
- The equivalent of fullname works correctly.
- It is better documented.
- It has callback-style interface, which is better suited for integration.
