I am trying to write something using kqueue to monitor a directory. It is my
understanding that for file creation I will be told a directory has been
written to and I then have to list the directory myself to determine the file
added.
I add the original directory path files using
enumeratorAtURL:includingPropertiesForKeys:options:errorHandler: which I gather
is the preferred deep, subdirectories included, lister choice.
This seems to have an option to omit hidden files. I am not using it but still
do not seem to get .DS_Store
When I receive a kqueue event that a directory has been written to I attempt to
use contentsOfDirectoryAtPath to get a shallow, no subdirectories, list I can
check for a file I didn't previously know about. This list does appear to
include .DS_Store, the result being that I keep thinking this is the file being
created.

The code based on UK source as you see.
Although I don't think relevant you might also note the java as this is being
run off of jni.
I just created another hidden file just to verify enumeratorAtURL would default
skip it and it seems to default ignore.
How do I get the enumeratorAtURL to include the .DS_Store files. Or do I have
to add my own filter to contentsOfDirectoryAtPath to skip hidden files for
consistency?
