NEW features of cdrtools-3.02a06:
|
||
|
||
This is the first localization step for cdrtools. All programs now (hopefully)
|
||
call gettext() for all strings that need localization.
|
||
|
||
- The next step will include dgettext() calls for the libraries.
|
||
|
||
- The following step will include the extracted strings
|
||
|
||
- The last step will include German translations and install support
|
||
for the resulting binary message object files.
|
||
|
||
----------> Please test and report compilation problems! <---------
|
||
|
||
***** NOTE: As mentioned since 2004, frontends to cdrtools should *****
|
||
***** call all programs from cdrtools in the "C" locale *****
|
||
***** by e.g. calling: LC_ALL=C cdrecord .... *****
|
||
***** unless these frontends support localized strings *****
|
||
***** used by the cdrtools with NLS support. *****
|
||
|
||
This version compiles on Win-DOS using the Microsoft compiler cl.exe but
|
||
warning: due to missing POSIX compliance with basic features (e.g. stat()
|
||
does not return inode numbers), there are many problems with the resulting
|
||
code and thus it is recommended to better use a POSIX layer on top of
|
||
WIN-DOS.
|
||
|
||
*** WARNING ***
|
||
*** Need new smake ***
|
||
|
||
*** Due to the fact that schily-2014-04-03 introduced to use new macro
|
||
*** expansions and a related bug fix in smake, you need a new smake
|
||
*** to compile this source. To ensure this, get a recent "schily"
|
||
*** tarball from http://sourceforge.net/projects/schilytools/files/
|
||
*** and call:
|
||
|
||
cd ./psmake
|
||
./MAKE-all
|
||
cd ..
|
||
psmake/smake
|
||
psmake/smake install
|
||
|
||
The new smake version mentioned above is smake-1.2.4.
|
||
Note that smake-1.2.5 exists and is preferrable.
|
||
|
||
Now you have a new smake that is able to compile this source.
|
||
|
||
Note that the major makefile restructuring introduced in
|
||
schily-2014-04-03 is now more than one month ago and thus seems
|
||
to work without problems.
|
||
|
||
WARNING: the new version of the isoinfo program makes use of the
|
||
*at() series of functions that have been introduced by Sun
|
||
in August 2001 and added to POSIX.1-2008. For older platforms,
|
||
libschily now includes emulations for these functions but
|
||
these emulations have not yet been tested thoroughly.
|
||
Please report problems!
|
||
|
||
|
||
All:
|
||
|
||
Libschily:
|
||
|
||
- libschily: fprformat.c now compiles with format.c in a way that is useful
|
||
on all possible targets by implementing a double buffered macro based
|
||
internal method for fprfprmat().
|
||
|
||
This is aprox. 10% slower than the previous single buffered solution for
|
||
Solaris (based on the putc_unlocked() macro) but it works anywhere and
|
||
it does not have the problems with unbuffered streams (like stderr)
|
||
that have been seen on Solaris since fprformat() was introduced in 2013.
|
||
|
||
- libschily: js_printf() and js_fprintf() now by default uses fprfprmat()
|
||
on all platforms. This reduces the performance on Solaris by 10% but it
|
||
enhances the performance on all other platforms. Our "od" implementation
|
||
via "hdump" is now 70% faster than "gnu od" on Linux instead of
|
||
being 50% faster before that change. It seems to be a good idea to get
|
||
a fast and POSIX compliant "od" implementation on Linux.
|
||
|
||
- Some typos in some manpages have been fixed.

Libparanoia (Ported/enhanced by J<>rg Schilling, originated by Monty xiphmont@mit.edu):

Libscg:
|
||
|
||
- libscg: fix a comparison with the timeout value that was wrong
|
||
because of a wrong copy/paste action. This code fragment is
|
||
used when the Linux kernel returns unspecific SCSI error codes
|
||
and previously caused cdrecord to incorrectly assume a timeout
|
||
that than incorrectly stopped the write operation.
|
||
|
||
- libscg: added a debug message (in non-silent mode) that prints
|
||
the sg_io.host_status value in case of unknown states.
|
||
|
||
- libscg: A new interface function "scg_opts()" has been introduced to parse
|
||
and set op generic SCSI options. The only new implemented general option
|
||
for now is: "ignore-resid". This option was introduced in order to be able
|
||
to work around a Linux kernel bug that results in a DMA residual count
|
||
!= 0 even though all data was transferred.

||
Linus kernel bug.
|
||
|
||
- cdrecord: The man page now also mentions scgopts=ignore-resid

Mkisofs (Maintained/enhanced by J<>rg Schilling since 1997, originated by Eric Youngdale):

|

- mkisofs call free(mroot) in main to quiet the address sanitzier.
|
||
Thanks to Heiko Ei<45>feldt for reporting.
|
||
|
||
- mkisofs: better error messages for rotten ISO-9660 directories
|
||
that are encountered in multi-session mode.
|
||
Thanks to Heiko Ei<45>feldt for reporting.
|
||
|

|
||
HELIOS TODO:
|
||
|
||
- Add the HELIOS UNICODE mapping code. This needs to be done
|
||
at UCS-2 level for Joliet and UDF (instead of UTF-8) and only
|
||
for Rock Ridge (in case of a UTF-8 based target locale) using
|
||
UTF-8 based translations.
|
||
|
||
- Make the Apple extensions work again with "mkisofs -find"
|
||
|
||
TODO:
|
||
|
||
- read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
|
||
or RR is present. I am looking for a volunteer for this task!
|
||
|
||
Note that this can never be 100% correct as there is no relation
|
||
between the names on the master (UNIX) filesystem, the ISO-9660
|
||
names and the Joliet names. Only the Rock Ridge names are
|
||
untranslated with respect to the original files on the
|
||
master (UNIX) filesystem.
|
||
|
||
- add libecc/edc for CDI and similar.

CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES:
|
||
|
||
To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin and install it.
|
||
For more information read README.win32
|
||
|
||
The files are located on:
|
||
|
||
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cdrtools/files/alpha/ ...
|
||
|
||
NOTE: These tar archives are 100% POSIX compatible. GNU tar may get some
|
||
minor trouble. If you like a 100% POSIX compliant tar, get star from
|
||
http://sourceforge.net/projects/s-tar/files/ of from the schily-*
|
||
tarball at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/schilytools/files/
|
||
|
||
WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
|
||
Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
