Detailed Description

inotify event class

It holds all information about inotify event and provides access to its particular values.

This class is not (and is not intended to be) thread-safe and therefore it must not be used concurrently in multiple threads.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

InotifyEvent::InotifyEvent

(

)

[inline]

Constructor.

Creates a plain event.

InotifyEvent::InotifyEvent	(	const struct inotify_event *	pEvt,
		InotifyWatch *	pWatch
	)		[inline]

Constructor.

Creates an event based on inotify event data. For NULL pointers it works the same way as InotifyEvent().

Parameters:

[in]	pEvt	event data
[in]	pWatch	inotify watch

InotifyEvent::~InotifyEvent

(

)

[inline]

Destructor.
