32 // Mac-specific file watcher implementation based on kqueue.
33 // Originally it was based on FSEvents so that the semantics were equivalent
34 // on Linux, OSX and Windows where it was able to detect:
35 // - file creation/deletion/modification in a watched directory
36 // - file creation/deletion/modification for a watched file
37 // - modifications to the paths to a watched object that would affect the
38 // object such as renaming/attibute changes etc.
39 // The FSEvents version did all of the above except handling attribute changes
40 // to path components. Unfortunately FSEvents appears to have an issue where the
41 // current implementation (Mac OS X 10.6.7) sometimes drops events and doesn't
42 // send notifications. See
43 // http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=54822#c31 for source that
44 // will reproduce the problem. FSEvents also required having a CFRunLoop
45 // backing the thread that it was running on, that caused added complexity
47 // The kqueue implementation will handle all of the items in the list above
48 // except for detecting modifications to files in a watched directory. It will
49 // detect the creation and deletion of files, just not the modification of
50 // files. It does however detect the attribute changes that the FSEvents impl
