Sam Halliday created VFS-536:
--------------------------------
Summary: DefaultFileMonitor will ignore files forever if directory
is deleted and recreated
Key: VFS-536
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-536
Project: Commons VFS
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Sam Halliday
We're using VFS2 in our emacs scala ide https://github.com/ensime/ensime-server
Unfortunately, I've just discovered that if we watch a directory, e.g. here we
are watching the target directory for class files that are created by a compiler
https://github.com/ensime/ensime-server/blob/master/src/main/scala/org/ensime/indexer/FileWatchers.scala#L28
then if the directory is deleted and recreated (as is done by the SBT scala
build tool!) then monitoring events are ignored forever!
I can confirm that file watching works fine if individual files are added or
removed.
