| typedef void(* | DestroyNotify )(gpointer data) | 
Monitors a file or directory for changes.
To obtain a FileMonitor for a file or directory, use File::monitor_file() or File::monitor_directory().
To get informed about changes to the file or directory you are monitoring, connect to signal_changed().
| 
 | virtual | 
| bool Gio::FileMonitor::cancel | ( | ) | 
Cancels a file monitor.
true if monitor was cancelled. | 
 | static | 
Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.
| 
 | inline | 
Provides access to the underlying C GObject.
|

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.
| GFileMonitor* Gio::FileMonitor::gobj_copy | ( | ) | 
Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.
| bool Gio::FileMonitor::is_cancelled | ( | ) | const | 
Returns whether the monitor is canceled.
true if monitor is canceled. false otherwise. | 
 | protectedvirtual | 
This is a default handler for the signal signal_changed().
| Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< bool > Gio::FileMonitor::property_cancelled | ( | ) | const | 
Whether the monitor has been cancelled.
You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.
| Glib::PropertyProxy< int > Gio::FileMonitor::property_rate_limit | ( | ) | 
The limit of the monitor to watch for changes, in milliseconds.
You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.
| Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< int > Gio::FileMonitor::property_rate_limit | ( | ) | const |

| void Gio::FileMonitor::set_rate_limit | ( | int | limit_msecs | ) | 
Sets the rate limit to which the monitor will report consecutive change events to the same file.
| limit_msecs | A non-negative integer with the limit in milliseconds to poll for changes. | 
| Glib::SignalProxy3< void,const Glib::RefPtr<File>&,const Glib::RefPtr<File>&,FileMonitorEvent > Gio::FileMonitor::signal_changed | ( | ) | 
void on_my_changed(const Glib::RefPtr<File>& file, const Glib::RefPtr<File>& other_file, FileMonitorEvent event_type)Emitted when file has been changed.
If using FILE_MONITOR_SEND_MOVED flag and event_type is FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_MOVED, file will be set to a File containing the old path, and other_file will be set to a File containing the new path.
In all the other cases, other_file will be set to #0.
