XXVIII. File Alteration Monitor Functions
Introduction
FAM monitors files and directories, notifying interested applications of changes. More information about FAM is available at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/.
A PHP script may specify a list of files for FAM to monitor using the functions provided by this extension.
The FAM process is started when the first connection from any application to it is opened. It exits after all connections to it have been closed.
Huomaa: This extension is not available on Windows platforms.
Requirements
This extension uses the functions of the FAM library, devoloped by SGI. Therefore you have to download and install the FAM library.
Installation
To use PHP's FAM support you must compile PHP --with-fam[=DIR] where DIR is the location of the directory containing the lib and include directories.
