Unsolved Does QFileSystemWatcher support subdirectories yet?

Does QFileSystemWatcher support watching directories and everything underneath them yet? Not looking for a hack... I know the Win API supports it with a simple flag passed to ReadDirectoryChangesW. Thanks!

Implementation of such a function (supporting recursion) could be very intensive depending upon tree depth and type filesystem used. Something about generically implementing the feature bothers my sensibilities. While the docs are not specific, I would highly doubt it. Remember that windoze only supports a small number of filesystem types. Linux supports many.

Thanks Kent. Time to go with Win API.

Or reevaluate whether your intented use is a good idea in the first place. In my experience, having to find work-arounds often means you are going down a path you should not even be pursuing. LOL
