I would like to know if it is possible to have a listener in my application for notifying events when a file is added to the file system. Can someone kindly guide me with this.
Thanks in advance.

You should use a
FileObserverto monitor for changes to files or directories.There seems to be an example here, but I’ve not tried it so can’t vouch for it’s correctness.
