Type Alias EventOwned

pub type EventOwned = Event<OsString>;

An owned version of Event

Aliased Type

struct EventOwned {
    pub wd: WatchDescriptor,
    pub mask: EventMask,
    pub cookie: u32,
    pub name: Option<OsString>,
}

Fields

wd: WatchDescriptor

Identifies the watch this event originates from

This WatchDescriptor is equal to the one that Inotify::add_watch returned when interest for this event was registered. The WatchDescriptor can be used to remove the watch using Inotify::rm_watch, thereby preventing future events of this type from being created.

mask: EventMask

Indicates what kind of event this is

cookie: u32

Connects related events to each other

When a file is renamed, this results two events: MOVED_FROM and MOVED_TO. The cookie field will be the same for both of them, thereby making is possible to connect the event pair.

name: Option<OsString>

The name of the file the event originates from

This field is set only if the subject of the event is a file or directory in a watched directory. If the event concerns a file or directory that is watched directly, name will be None.
