Hi,

My app is set to observe a folder for changes to its contents (using UKKQueue. 
Thanks Uli! :-)). When files are dropped into the folder the app is notified 
and processes the files. This works well, except for one catch: sometimes we 
receive the notification and spawn the worker thread, and trying to load the 
file fails ( [[PDFDocument alloc] initWithURL:sourceURL] returns nil). This 
seems to happen predominantly with large files. I get the impression the 
notification happens as soon as the file transfer into the watched directory 
begins, and my worker thread is ready and starts loading the file before it has 
been fully transferred. Hence the failure to create a PDFDocument from the file.

Is there a way to check whether the file has been fully transferred, or, even 
better, to get notified only when the file transfer has been completed?

António
