Detect file system changes on Samba share with Java on Windows
- by GHad
Hi,
for a recent project I need to detect file system changes on a mapped Samba share from java on windows: Creates, updates and removes. At the moment I am using a folder poll that maintains a list of files and their modified timestamp to look for events.
But my problem is that this folder poll only peeks into the folder at certain times (every 10 seconds for example), so an updated file can be updated twice between two polls without recognizing.
Is there any way to get events from windows inside Java whenever a file event occours on that mappep Samba share?
Thanks!
