I need to poll a folder for changes i.e. files added, modified and deleted.
If I want to distinguish between the different types of events listed above would I need to implement a custom poller i.e. implement AbstractPoller. I have already implemented a poller that does this for a different project but would like to us spring integration and batch as I need to use other functionality.
What is the best way of doing this?
Thanks
Wouldn't you mind to share your code? BTW you always can utilize the custom code with <int:inbound-channel-adapter> as a ref and method, where an underlying POJO will return some object which will become as payload of message.
As you know the <int:inbound-channel-adapter> should be configured with <poller> how often you want to call that undelying POJO.
