[jira] [Created] (VFS-654) File system events API

Boris Petrov created VFS-654:
--------------------------------

             Summary: File system events API
                 Key: VFS-654
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-654
             Project: Commons VFS
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 2.2
            Reporter: Boris Petrov


Currently the DefaultFileMonitor walks the whole file system and notifies when something changes. For large file systems and (near) real-time requirements this is _extremely_ inefficient. Some file systems have an events API which could be exposed (like *inotify*). Has any work towards that ever been done?
