I think the simplest way is to use DO and DistriNotificationCenter.
You need the daemon, which is a DO server that maintains a list of
clients and the path's they need to have watched. It periodically (using
an NSTimer) checks whether those paths changed and broadcasts the change
to the clients using NSDistributedNotificationCenter.
On the client side I would create a category on NSFileManager (eg
NSFileManager+1984.m ;-) which does the whole registry stuff (registers
the client with the server using DO, registers the client for the
DistriNotiCenter, starts the daemon, if not already running).
I see no particular problem with this, do you have any question on a
special subtopic ?
