35  * Monitors files (using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inotify">inotify</a>)
36  * to fire an event after files are accessed or changed by any process on
37  * the device (including this one).  FileObserver is an abstract class;
38  * subclasses must implement the event handler {@link #onEvent(int, String)}.
39  *
40  * <p>Each FileObserver instance can monitor multiple files or directories.
41  * If a directory is monitored, events will be triggered for all files and
42  * subdirectories inside the monitored directory.</p>
43  *
44  * <p>An event mask is used to specify which changes or actions to report.
45  * Event type constants are used to describe the possible changes in the
46  * event mask as well as what actually happened in event callbacks.</p>
47  *
48  * <p class="caution"><b>Warning</b>: If a FileObserver is garbage collected, it
49  * will stop sending events.  To ensure you keep receiving events, you must
50  * keep a reference to the FileObserver instance from some other live object.</p>
