I'm not aware of any way to do it without polling the file periodically for changes.  This page gives an example of how to implement a FileChangeListener using java.util.Timer & TimerTask:

I have a situation where I need to be able to monitor a file for changes and then load the changes when this file changes.
 
After doing extensive research on the net I have not been able to come up with a simple solution to this problem. Does anyone have suggestions that may help me move forward?
 
Thanks
