an example that monitors a file for name changes and performs some custom behavior whenit does. (You would provide the actual behavior in place of the MyUpdateFileName function called in theexample.) Because a descriptor is opened specifically for the dispatch source, the dispatch source includes acancellation handler that closes the descriptor. Because the file descriptor created by the example is associatedwith the underlying file-system object, this same dispatch source can be used to detect any number of filename changes.

dispatch_source_t MonitorNameChangesToFile(const char* filename)
  {
     int fd = open(filename, O_EVTONLY);
     if (fd == -1)
return NULL;
dispatch_queue_t queue =
  dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0);
     dispatch_source_t source = dispatch_source_create(DISPATCH_SOURCE_TYPE_VNODE,
                  fd, DISPATCH_VNODE_RENAME, queue);
if (source) {
        // Copy the filename for later use.
        int length = strlen(filename);
        char* newString = (char*)malloc(length + 1);
        newString = strcpy(newString, filename);
        dispatch_set_context(source, newString);
        // Install the event handler to process the name change
        dispatch_source_set_event_handler(source, ^{
              const char*  oldFilename = (char*)dispatch_get_context(source);
              MyUpdateFileName(oldFilename, fd);
        });
        // Install a cancellation handler to free the descriptor
        // and the stored string.
        dispatch_source_set_cancel_handler(source, ^{
            char* fileStr = (char*)dispatch_get_context(source);
            free(fileStr);
            close(fd);
});
        // Start processing events.
   dispatch_resume(source);
}
   else
      close(fd);
   return source;
}
