Continual event updates on every file in watched directories #121

Closed jheld closed 8 years ago

jheld commented 8 years ago

I am using the Threaded notifier (and also used the regular one), coalesced and not coalesced.

I keep getting created and modified/closed (depending on which I use for that run) event updates. The files are not open or being touched, from my perspective. I'm doing cloud storage...so I download each file, add a watcher to the directory (not recursive), and continue that way walking the tree and adding a directory watch.

But I keep getting these updates. I had tried using this project a couple weeks ago on my first attempt and this issue was not occurring. Now it does (fresh code base)...so likely it's something I've done, but maybe you have ideas?

Nevermind. Glad it was just on my end! Thanks for the library.
