It’s a Qt app, written that way.

Amazing!
Thanks for testing.
I wasn’t able to test much due to my system limitations so its nice to see basic read support working.

You can report issues on our Bug Tracker, maybe uploading file which caused crash which will help me a lot to debug :slight_smile:

Let’s see if I can find some way to fix Tracker issue as well.

Cool… Can xfs fully usable as befs alternative someday?

48

Well that depends how much development we will see for XFS in upcoming time and how stable it will be, currently this project is developed by GSoC students ( I am current GSoC student as well).

I am planning on importing xfs-tests from linux after my GSoC period which contains torture tests for major file systems on linux like xfs, btrfs, ext4 etc…

So if our xfs code passes those tests one day it will be very stable.

But I don’t think there is going to be bfs alternative in Haiku in future anyway, we are successor of BeOS isn’t it :stuck_out_tongue:

:smiley: … yes i think you right about BeOs successor thing…

@khallebal - which Qt file manager is it? is it your own port or is it available on HaikuPorts / HaikuDepot etc?

Edit: I guess it’s Dolphin which is in the HaikuDepot

51

No it’ not Dolphin, you can get it from the link bellow.

52

Create a recipe for it and add it to haikuports? :wink:

53

well, i wan’t sure if it was good idea to write a recipe for it 'coz it’s a bit rough around the edges, but i guess it’s alright if i do ,we"re used to rough edges around here anyway :laughing:

No. It doesn’t support queries. No filesystem other than befs does. Why would we replace befs anyways? Do you have problems with it?

The goalof this project is only to make it easier to share data with other OS (for example Linux) that would be installed on the same machine.

Hello!

Just tested xattrs for XFS

Screenshot 2022-08-27 at 1.17.02 PM

As directories xattrs are stored in several formats :

  • Short attributes.
  • Leaf attributes.
  • Node attributes.
  • B+Tree attributes.

I completed and tested shortform attributes, now I will be working on remaining attributes format support :slight_smile:
