Hierarchy

Monitors a file or directory for changes. To obtain a <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/GFileMonitor?package=RGtk2&version=2.20.31" data-mini-rdoc="RGtk2::GFileMonitor">GFileMonitor</a></code> for a file or directory, use
<code><a rd-options="" href="/link/gFileMonitor?package=RGtk2&version=2.20.31" data-mini-rdoc="RGtk2::gFileMonitor">gFileMonitor</a></code>, <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/gFileMonitorFile?package=RGtk2&version=2.20.31" data-mini-rdoc="RGtk2::gFileMonitorFile">gFileMonitorFile</a></code>, or
<code><a rd-options="" href="/link/gFileMonitorDirectory?package=RGtk2&version=2.20.31" data-mini-rdoc="RGtk2::gFileMonitorDirectory">gFileMonitorDirectory</a></code>. To get informed about changes to the file or directory you are
monitoring, connect to the <code>"changed"</code> signal. The
signal will be emitted in the thread-default main
context of the thread that the monitor was created in
(though if the global default main context is blocked, this may
cause notifications to be blocked even if the thread-default
context is still running).
