I'm looking for a way to get notified as soon as a new file has been created. So I was wondering if boost has a way of monitoring files so I can send them off as soon as I receive them. This would have to work for Linux and windows. I saw a few posts which seem to indicate that its not there yet, but that was some time ago.
If you click on http://en.highscore.de/cpp/boost/asio.html and scroll down to the very end, you find a directory monitor. It's a Boost.Asio I/O service object I once created. I don't remember whether it does out of the box what you need. But then feel free to adapt it. :) HTH, Boris
