which inotify event signals the completion of a large file operation?
- by Jeremiah Rose
for large files or slow connections, copying files may take some time.
using pyinotify, i have been watching for the IN_CREATE event code. but this seems to occur at the start of a file transfer. i need to know when a file is completely copied - it aint much use if it's only half there.
when a file transfer is finished and completed, what inotify event is fired?
