Implementations can use this information in different ways such as notifying downstream operators with a control tuple that a new directory has been scanned. @DT-Priyanka please see.

However, when the directory is empty nothing is sent. A downstream > operator may want some basic information that the input directory is scanned, > so for example, it can create an output folder. Add a notification to the > operator when the directory is scanned for the first time. An implementation, > for example, can use this notification to send a control tuple with the > directory path notifying the downstream that the directory has been visited. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
