I've tried to open a file directly like fopen("/test.txt","w+"); it works on the simulator but doesn't work on the iPhone. Then I've tried this: NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource: @"GirlName.txt" ofType:nil]; NSLog(path); fichier = fopen([path cStringUsingEncoding:1],"w+"); if (fichier != NULL) { ... } else {...

Hi, I have a log file that continually logs short lines. I need to develop a service that reacts (or polls, or listens to) to new lines added to that file, a sort of unix' tail program, so that my service is always up to date reguarding the file. I don't think that opening a read stream and keeping it opened is a good idea. Maybe I sho...

Hello, We are developing a file system for Windows using IFS Kit. We started to investigate a performance problem which caused our file system I/O to be much slower when shared over the network. After looking at it with FileMon and TCPView from Sysinternals we found out that if a NTFS/FAT was shared, the SMB client and server were trans...
I have recently encountered an embedded system with IDE drives that are FAT32 but have >4gb files. It appears to do this by setting the file size in the 32byte directory entry to how many bytes the final cluster uses - instead of being the actual file size. This allows the the files to have arbitrary FAT chains. The downside is the only ...
Hey all, Just a general question for those of you working with the Smarty templating engine. How are you setting up your file structure?

Has anyone worked wi...

Hi all, I read some post in this regard but I still don't understand what's the best solution in my case. I'm start writing a new webApp and the backend is going to provide about 1-10 million images. (average size 200-500kB for a single image) My site will provide content and images to 100-1000 users at the same time. I'd like also to...
I have a few web pages that all perform various functions for one main piece of functionality or "tool". Instead of having one massive page where I do the various functions based on a "mode" query parameter (?mode=edit, new, view, etc.) I want to break up the pages so debugging won't be such a nightmare since the code is long and comple...

I am planning to create a screen saver. Thinking of trying out some WPF as well. Anyways, I am not quite sure how I would organize the screen saver on disk in the file system. I have mainly two related issues that I am very uncertain on how to solve: Normally an application lives, with all its 3rd party assemblies, static resources, im...

I want to detect whether the file name is in the list, but need to respect the underlying file system's property of whether it is case-sensitive. Is there any easy way to do this (other than the "hack" of checking System.getProperty("os.name", "").toLow...
