ExtendedWatchEventKind

java.lang.Object
- name.pachler.nio.file.ext.ExtendedWatchEventKind

```
public class ExtendedWatchEventKind
extends java.lang.Object
```
Provides non-standard watch event kinds that enable more specialized watch features.
File rename tracking
The ENTRY_RENAME_FROM and ENTRY_RENAME_TO event kinds enable more fine grained file rename tracing. When only the standard event kinds are specified with Path.register(), renaming a file in a watched directory will only yield an StandardWatchEventKind.ENTRY_CREATE and an StandardWatchEventKind.ENTRY_DELETE event, which makes it indistinguishable from actual file creation and deletion events.
If ENTRY_RENAME_FROM and/or ENTRY_RENAME_TO are specified, renamed files will be reported with respective events. Note that if both ENTRY_RENAME_FROM and ENTRY_RENAME_TO are specified, a ENTRY_RENAME_FROM event for a file will be immediately be followed by a ENTRY_RENAME_TO event for the same file.

- Field Detail
  - ENTRY_RENAME_FROM
```
public static WatchEvent.Kind<Path> ENTRY_RENAME_FROM
```
    Indicates the old file name of a renamed file. The WatchEvent's WatchEvent.context() method will return a Path that indicates the previous name that the file had.
  - ENTRY_RENAME_TO
```
public static WatchEvent.Kind<Path> ENTRY_RENAME_TO
```
    Indicates the new file name of a renamed file. The WatchEvent's WatchEvent.context() method will return a Path that indicates the new name of the file.
  - KEY_INVALID
```
public static WatchEvent.Kind<java.lang.Void> KEY_INVALID
```
    Indicates that the given WatchKey has become invalid. This can happen for a number of reasons:
    
    The key has been invalidated programmatically by calling WatchKey.cancel().
    
    The WatchService has been closed.
    
    The path that the key has been registered with has become unavailable, e.g because it was deleted or the file system on which it resides has been unmounted.
    
    Note that not all operating systems will invalidate the WatchKey (and report KEY_INVALID) under the same circumstances. On most platforms, moving or renaming the directory that the key was registered with will invalidate it, however, on Windows it will not (only when it is deleted or unmounted).
