Well, gfilenotify uses a native library like inotify or kqueue when available. If not, it does polling. I guess the latter happens in the cygwin case. Maybe we need to determine the polling interval, and to set file-notify--test-read-event-timeout larger than that. Will check, whether information this could be retrieved from gfilenotify.
That would be helpful.
I see. I will check further, whether I could modify Fgfile_add_watch such a way that it returns only when it is able to create events.
And that.
LGTM, please install.
Done.
I would also like to modify the expensive tests accordingly. Do you know where I could retrieve a compiled Emacs 26 for cygwin?
I've just built one and put it on my private Cygwin repository at http://sanibeltranquility.com/cygwin/index.html There are instructions at that site. Let me know if anything is unclear. Best regards, Ken
