Catching file change in following way:
QFileSystemWatcher watcher;
QFileInfo file(url.toLocalFile());
watcher.addPath(file.absoluteFilePath());
connect(&watcher, &QFileSystemWatcher::fileChanged, this, &MyClass::mySlot);
slot receives signal only once, then QFileSystemWatcher does not react on any file change. To catch file changes use following workaround - added following lines:
qmlWatcher.addPath(file.absolutePath());
connect(&watcher, &QFileSystemWatcher::directoryChanged, this, &MyClass::mySlot);
In this case able to catch all further file modifications.
