I'm renaming file. I'm getting

#!log


DIR ( "/home/yash/Projects/qt/KiWi/kiwi-doc/" ) FILE ( "ApiEvents.textile1" ) has event Moved from ( "ApiEvents.textile" )
Reload PATH: "/home/yash/Projects/qt/KiWi/kiwi-doc"
DIR ( "/home/yash/Projects/qt/KiWi/kiwi-doc/" ) FILE ( "ApiEvents.textile1" ) has event Delete
Reload PATH: "/home/yash/Projects/qt/KiWi/kiwi-doc"
DIR ( "/home/yash/Projects/qt/KiWi/kiwi-doc/" ) FILE ( "ApiEvents.textile" ) has event Added
Reload PATH: "/home/yash/Projects/qt/KiWi/kiwi-doc"
DIR ( "/home/yash/Projects/qt/KiWi/kiwi-doc/" ) FILE ( "ApiEvents.textile" ) has event Modified

Sometimes proper Moved event and sometimes Deleted, Added series of events.

Am I doing anything wrong or its just OS specific. I want proper Moved event in all renaming cases and not deleted,added... series.

I don't know its bug or just random behavior or correct behavior.

Depends on the OS, this could be normal in some conditions. Let me know the OS and how are you renaming those files.

Hi Martin,

I'm using Ubuntu

Using default file manager Nautilus. Result same even I change file from my product(KineticWing).

Moved is proper event but sometimes OS report deleted,added.... Can we do anything to improve current situation?

On Windows it's working fine.

This is not an issue with the OS reporting wrongly the events. It's just how the software is managing the file renaming under the hood, i can't do anything about that. I tried here renaming files and always worked as expected. I don't have Nautilus to see why it's doing that, or if it's Nautilus the reason to blame.

But, everything is working as expected. Remember that i don't manage the events, that's the OS job, and if you get that events, it's what's really happening.

I'm feeling same. Windows and MAC it's working fine. I will try other file managers on Ubuntu for more info on this issue.
