Public Member Functions | |
virtual | ~FileMonitor () |
GFileMonitor* | gobj () |
Provides access to the underlying C GObject. | |
const GFileMonitor* | gobj () const |
Provides access to the underlying C GObject. | |
GFileMonitor* | gobj_copy () |
Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs. | |
bool | cancel () |
Cancels a file monitor. | |
bool | is_cancelled () const |
Returns: true if monitor is canceled. | |
void | set_rate_limit (int limit_msecs) |
Sets the rate limit to which the monitor will report consecutive change events to the same file. | |
Glib::SignalProxy3< void, const Glib::RefPtr< File > &, const Glib::RefPtr< File > &, FileMonitorEvent > | signal_changed () |
Glib::PropertyProxy< int > | property_rate_limit () |
The limit of the monitor to watch for changes. | |
Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< int > | property_rate_limit () const |
The limit of the monitor to watch for changes. | |
Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly < bool > | property_cancelled () const |
Whether the monitor has been cancelled. | |

Glib::RefPtr< Gio::FileMonitor > | wrap (GFileMonitor* object, bool take_copy=false) |
A Glib::wrap() method for this object. |
Monitors a file or directory for changes.
To obtain a FileMonitor for a file or directory, use File::monitor_file() or File::monitor_directory().
To get informed about changes to the file or directory you are monitoring, connect to signal_changed.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.
