========================================================================
1. About
This program is the inotify C++ interface. It is designed for easy use
of Linux inotify technology in C++ applications. You need not to deal
with file descriptors and such uncomfortable things. Instead you can
use a few simple C++ classes.
2. Requirements
* Linux kernel 2.6.13 or later (with inotify compiled in)
* inotify header(s) installed in <INCLUDE_DIR>/sys. The most common
place is /usr/include/sys. Some Linux distributions contain only
inotify.h which defines everything needed. But sometimes must
be used inotify.h and inotify-syscalls.h as available e.g. at
the inotify-cxx homepage.
* GCC 4.x compiler (probably works also with GCC 3.4, possibly with
older versions too)
3. How to use
Include inotify-cxx.h into your sources and add inotify-cxx.cpp for
compiling (e.g. through your makefile).
If you have installed it into your system-wide include dir (e.g.
/usr/include), use #include <inotify-cxx.h> or similar.
Otherwise use #include "inotify-cxx.h".
For thread-safe behavior, define the INOTIFY_THREAD_SAFE symbol
(eg. -DINOTIFY_THREAD_SAFE on gcc's command line). See documentation
for details about thread safety.
4. Bugs, suggestions
THIS PROGRAM IS AN ALPHA VERSION. IT PROBABLY CONTAINS BUGS AND
THEREFORE IT IS NOT INTENDED FOR PRODUCTION USE.
If you find a bug or have a suggestion how to improve the program,
please use the bug tracking system at http://bts.aiken.cz.
