Hi Dan,
I never had any joy with fuse_purge_np which I imagined might just get things
to "just work" in the way you mention. I also noted that fuse_purge_np is
also a method that is not recommended.
What I did in the end was to go back to the LoopBack
example. If you run the LoopBack and add or remove a file or folder within the
folder
on which the loop-back mount exposes (not the device that appears) then you are
doing the equivalent of adding a file or folder outside of the file system. I
set up the LoopBack
so that it had the same flags for the mount as my filesystem and checked
out what happened – I should note that I used the auto_cache option. If I added
or removed a file or folder behind MacFUSE´s back the finder correctly updated.
The
difference I found between my file system and the LoopBack
was that when I added or removed a file or folder the date of the enclosing
(parent) folder changed – this appears to be normal UNIX behaviour. As long as
my file system did not replicate this behaviour the auto_cache option
only sort of half-worked.
I hope that this helps
Best Regards
Alan Shouls
