I asked this question on here several months ago with zero replies.

AFAIK there isn't a public api for this. I've resorted to having a thread which constantly re-stat's the files and folders i'm interested in. One of many gross hacks I've had to perpetrate to get my application working like I want it.

my app needs to be notified when the finder (or any other app) creates, moves or deletes files or folders. I can't seem to find a way to do this.

I'm currently getting notified with the NSWorkspace notifications, some of them work reliably like the app launching or volume mounting, but I don't get called for files being created, moved or deleted.
