Fix fd leak in INotify::Notifier #26

Closed vongruenigen closed 11 years ago

vongruenigen commented 11 years ago

Currenty, there's a leak of file descriptors in the INotify::Notifier.watch() method class when calling it with the :recursive flag.

If a directory is opened via Dir.new() it should always be closed via Dir.close() afterwards, otherwise one file descriptor for each watched directory is leaked.
