In JDK 1.7 the new NIO2 changes include a new "Watch Service" which is hooked into the underlying operating system's events (where possible):
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/io/notification.html I added some File Listener/Monitor stuff added a year or so ago, but it hasn't yet been released as part of Commons IO: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-132 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/io/trunk/src/java/org/apache/commons/io/monitor/ In light of whats going to be coming in the JDK I'm think we should remove what we have atm in Commons IO. Anyone have any objections/thoughts to me doing this?
