... für eine neue Version von Calmira LFN für Windows NT 3.51...
Liebe Leute,
habe heute eine Mail von Mark Stroberg bekommen, der Tester für seine neue Calmira Version sucht.
Wer gerne testen möchte. wende sich bitte an mwstroberg [ETT] hotspringsmt [PÜNKTCHEN] net (absichtlich verfremdet, aber sollte noch entschlüsselbar sein....)
Hier der Text seiner Mail:
Zitat: | The version I came up with worked well enough with the following exceptions:
1) Correspondence between CD/DVD Joliet and ISO9660 file and directory names was imperfect at best and often was wrong. 2) Network drives did not work at all, in fact the way I wrote it if long file names were enabled network drives did not work at all, even using short file names. 3) The long file name DLL (LFNLIB.DLL) depended on a Windows 3.1 VxD called INTXLATE.386 which precluded the LFN Library from working on Windows NT, and I have noticed that some people use Calmira on Windows NT 3.51.
I am now working on an entire Calmira LFN system which overcomes these limitations, which I have architected in my mind. I am nearly done with a fix for (3) which uses generic thunks to access 32-bit long file name functions in KERNEL32.DLL in Windows NT. It allows full use of long file names by Calmira in Windows NT, and fixes (1) completely for Windows NT and (2) for accessing all 32-bit Windows stations from Windows NT. I would like to know if you are interested in testing it, both in general and specifically with different code pages (ones other than US English).
This is just the first (and easiest) part of my project, and is nearly complete. Once I get a working version tested and fixed, I will focus on fixing (2) for all Calmira compatible operating systems. (1) is a bear and will require more research into the relationship between ISO9660 and Joliet file systems.
Please let me know if you are interested in testing it. I do not even know if you are still interested in Calmira or Windows 3.1, or if you have any Calmira workstations running on Windows NT 3.51.
