scevents's Issues

Getting a warning: SCEvent.m:110:1: Method possibly missing a [super dealloc] call

Get all File and Folder notification using SCEvents (FSEvents wrapper )?

I had implemented file watcher part using SCEvents : https://github.com/mz2/SCEvents It is notifying all changes. But I want only file created, deleted, renamed, modified events notification and also folder created,deleted,renamed notification? How to get exact these notification? And How to used it? I don't need all notification.

output I get is this:

2014-02-12 13:09:14.607 TestSCEvent10-2[5189:503] SCEvent { eventId = 3348870, eventPath = /Users/user1/.Trash/untitled folder 1.09.13 PM, eventFlags = 133120 }
Its notifying me changed in the form of event_id, event_path and event_flags. But how should I get information which event is raise. Its not giving any details like File created event occurs, File Renamed event occur etc.

How should i get proper information about which event is raised?
Can we get notification type(like file created, file deleted etc.) using eventFlags? or is there any other way for this?

Please give me direction. Thanks...

Returning different value of _eventsFlags in SCEvents(FSEvents wrapper )?

I implemented file watcher part using SCEvents
Its giving output like this :

2014-02-11 16:08:38.725 TestSCEvent10-2[2995:403]
SCEvent {
eventId = 3182336,
eventPath = /Users/user1/Desktop,
eventFlags = 131328
}
Value of enum is :

kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemCreated = 0x00000100,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemRemoved = 0x00000200,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemInodeMetaMod = 0x00000400,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemRenamed = 0x00000800,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemModified = 0x00001000,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemFinderInfoMod = 0x00002000,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemChangeOwner = 0x00004000,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemXattrMod = 0x00008000,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemIsFile = 0x00010000,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemIsDir = 0x00020000,
kFSEventStreamEventFlagItemIsSymlink = 0x00040000

It register SCEvents flags with above value, and If we run the application and change the file contents or renamed the file the value of _eventsFlags is different. So i unable to know which file event is occured?

Please provide me direction...
