Constructor & Destructor Documentation

VuoFileWatcher()

VuoFileWatcher::VuoFileWatcher	(	VuoFileWatcherDelegate *	delegate,
		const string &	fileOrFolderToWatch,
		bool	persistent = true
	)

Starts watching a file or folder.

If persistent is true: If the file/folder doesn't exist, or exists and is later deleted or moved/renamed, it is periodically checked for existence, then watching begins (again).

If persistent is false: If the file/folder doesn't exist, this class instance does nothing. If the file/folder exists and is later deleted or moved/renamed, this class instance stops watching it (even if another file/folder with the same name later reappears, or if the same file/folder is renamed back into place).
