GFileMonitorFlags

Flags used to set what a gio.FileMonitor will watch for.

Values

ValueMeaning
NONE0

No flags set.

WATCH_MOUNTS1

Watch for mount events.

SEND_MOVED2

Pair DELETED and CREATED events caused by file renames (moves) and send a single G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_MOVED event instead (NB: not supported on all backends; the default behaviour -without specifying this flag- is to send single DELETED and CREATED events). Deprecated since 2.46: use G_FILE_MONITOR_WATCH_MOVES instead.

WATCH_MOVES8

Watch for rename operations on a monitored directory. This causes G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_RENAMED, G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_MOVED_IN and G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_MOVED_OUT events to be emitted when possible. Since: 2.46.
