[platform-core-dev] Re: AutoRefresh attempt #2

Jed,

 

I think the major problem with the Win32Monitor with "all sorts of filenames" is the Convert.toPlatformBytes function. It should append a zero character to the byte array returned, which is needed for the Win32-APIs to know when the string (i.e. pathname) ends.

 

After changing this on my machine (Windows XP) I also removed rejecting path names containing spaces in Win32Monitor.addPath.

 

Now the native support for Windows seems to be ok. To see file system modifications instantly in the workspace is so cool. Thank you for your efforts supporting auto-refresh.

 

Ciao,
