void watchFile(std::string_view name)

template<detail::callable<> Func> void onModify (std::string_view file, Func &&func) noexcept(detail::safe_callable< Func >)

Call a function if file has been modified.

Note

The file watcher silently adds file to it’s watch list if the file isn’t there already.

Note

The function is noexcept only if Func() is noexcept.

Template Parameters

• Func: A generic function representation.

Parameters

• file: The file that should be checked if it is modified or not.

• func: The function that should be called if file has been modified.

void unwatchFile(std::string_view filename) noexcept

Stops watching a file if it was already watching it.

Note

If the file wasn’t being watched, the file watcher doesn’r report anything.
