Von inotify_init() zurückgegebene Ressource

Rückgabewerte

An array of inotify events or false if no events was pending and inotify_instance is non-blocking. Each event is an array with the following keys:

  • wd is a watch descriptor returned by inotify_add_watch()
  • mask is a bit mask of events
  • cookie is a unique id to connect related events (e.g. IN_MOVE_FROM and IN_MOVE_TO)
  • name is the name of a file (e.g. if a file was modified in a watched directory)

Siehe auch

  • inotify_init() - Initialize an inotify instance
  • stream_select() - Runs the equivalent of the select() system call on the given arrays of streams with a timeout specified by seconds and microseconds
  • stream_set_blocking() - Set blocking/non-blocking mode on a stream
  • inotify_queue_len() - Return a number upper than zero if there are pending events

once the watch is read, it is removed from the queue.
(inotify_queue_len will return 0)
