Hello list,
does anybody have an idea, how to obtain the new name of a renamed file after
the note_rename event is fired. I'm not very familiar with
filesystem-operations. I checked the typical functions like stat or lstat, but
these functions are working only with filenames.
there is no real way.
the new link to the inode could come from any point in the filesystem
so the
only way to find it would be an exhaustive search.
the only information that you could return that might make any sense
would be the inode number of the new parent.
That would allow you to follow the '..' links and do 'pwd' in effect.
I have not checked to see if that information is returned. If it isn't
it might be a really nice enhancement to see if it could be added.
