But I think what is happening is there is an FSEvent when the placeholder file is created at the destination. This file has a file size of 0 bytes. When the file is finished being written the file is swapped out with the placeholder file. This raises a 2nd FSEvent. Reading the file size on the second event shows the full file size. It looks to me like 'cp' doesn't show the file at all until it is finished writing. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
