Hi Folks.

Do you know any component / tool to allow an application to be notified by the host OS when something changes in a disk directory ?
Both Windows & Linux.

I think on Linux that you need something like the File Alteration Monitor (FAM) daemon, but I don't know how universally it's implemented.

Nothing that complicated.

Just use inotify. The inotify unit is in the rtl.

I didn't get around to writing a cross-platform component for this yet.
