rustix 1.0.3

//! inotify support for working with inotify objects.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! ```
//! use rustix::fs::inotify;
//! use rustix::io;
//! use std::mem::MaybeUninit;
//!
//! # fn test() -> io::Result<()> {
//! // Create an inotify object. In this example, we use `NONBLOCK` so that the
//! // reader fails with `WOULDBLOCK` when no events are ready. Otherwise it
//! // will block until at least one event is ready.
//! let inotify = inotify::init(inotify::CreateFlags::NONBLOCK)?;
//!
//! // Add a directory to watch.
//! inotify::add_watch(
//!     &inotify,
//!     "/path/to/some/directory/to/watch",
//!     inotify::WatchFlags::ALL_EVENTS,
//! )?;
//!
//! // Generate some events in the watched directory…
//!
//! // Loop over pending events.
//! let mut buf = [MaybeUninit::uninit(); 512];
//! let mut iter = inotify::Reader::new(inotify, &mut buf);
//! loop {
//!     let entry = match iter.next() {
//!         // Stop iterating if there are no more events for now.
//!         Err(io::Errno::WOULDBLOCK) => break,
//!         Err(e) => return Err(e),
//!         Ok(entry) => entry,
//!     };
//!
//!     // Use `entry`…
