Description Murray Cumming 2008-01-16 20:20:47 UTC 
The GFileMonitor documentation 
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gio/unstable/GFileMonitor.html
doesn't say how to instantiate or get an instance.

I guess that it should recommend the use of functions such as g_file_monitor_directory().

It should probably also mention the "changed" signal in the description, and the documentation for the signal should probably mention that its emitted for directory changes as well as file changes.
Comment 1 Murray Cumming 2008-01-24 16:11:05 UTC 
I'll add a mention of g_file_monitor_file() and g_file_monitor_directory() to fix this, I guess.
