    Hi to all,
    I have a problem detecting inputs with my Udoo quad.
    I have a file listener in Java that detects when there's a change in the files under gpio's directories (e.g. /sys/class/gpio/gpioXX/...). This works perfectly with output pins because the edit date of the file changes as I echo 1 or 0 into value, but this doesn't happen for input pins..the only way to detect a change is to periodically check the content of value file for every input pin...is there any better way to detect an input signal?? couldn't be the edit date of the value file be updated on inputs?

    Best,
    Flavio
