Working demo for wxFileSystemWatcher

[halfer]

Here is a simple file watcher app, as discussed on #110. Tested on Ubuntu 14.04 with PHP 5.5.9.

There are a couple of oddities I'd draw attention to, in case you want to improve this before merging down. Firstly to watch what happens inside a folder, the watched folder must end in a trailing slash - if this behaviour is introduced by wxPHP and not wxWidgets, that might be worth looking at. (I don't have a view as to where it is introduced, but thought the behaviour was rather strange - if there is no trailing slash I imagine one would still want to know about file events directly in that folder).

Also, unlike other controls a watcher cannot be instantiated until the loop is running, and creating one in a frame constructor or app init bombs with an error (see the code comments). Ideally it could be instantiated at any time and start watching when the event loop starts, but I don't know how feasible this is (and the timer workaround feels perfectly clean). If there's a better way to delay this instantiation, do let me know.

Looks good! The trailing slash requirement may be reported at the wxwidgets bug tracker or ask them if that's the normal behavior, but I don't think it is a big issue. About the wxTimer I think it is fine too. So I will merge this now.

Great! OK, good idea - I will log a ticket over there.
