NEW features of cdrtools-2.01.01a59:
*******
NOTE: cdrtools is currently in a state just before a new major release.
*******
All:
- Add -D_GNU_SOURCE to the standard include flags for Linux in order
to unhide needed extensions.
- Trying to add support for compilation on WIN64 using cl and gcc
- Adding support for NT-6.0 (Win Vista) and NT-6.1 (Win 7)
- Several typo corrections
- New include file include/schily/wctype.h
- New autoconf test that checks for the differences between the original
iconv() implementation from Sun and the deviating POSIX standard.
This allows to avoid compiler warning messages for mkisofs.
Libschily:
Libparanoia (Ported/enhanced by Jörg Schilling, originated by Monty
xiphm...@mit.edu):
Libedc (Optimized by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt
he...@hexco.de):
Libcdrdeflt:
Libdeflt:
Libfind:
Libfile:
Libhfs_iso:
Libsiconv:
- Fixed a copy/paste error from libsiconv. Libsiconv now correctly
initlizes duplicated data structures to prevent core dumps.
Thanks to Jörg Sonnenberger for reporting.
Libscg:
Libscgcmd:
Rscsi:
Cdrecord:
- Better error messages when the media size is unknown
- Try to work around a firmware bug in the drive:
'HL-DT-ST' 'DVD-RAM GH22NP20' '1.02'
that is in effect with DVD+R media.
***** ATTENTION *****
The algorith to fetch the size information from a DVD+R/RW medium was
changed with this
release. Please check for and report problems.
- cdtext.c now checks for empty CD-Text files to prevent a later endless
loop in cdrecord
while writing the TOC. Thanks to Sebastian Trüg <tr...@k3b.org> for
reporting.
- Man page corrected some problems from hypen -> minus
Cdda2wav (Maintained/enhanced by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt
he...@hexco.de):
- cdda2wav now supports new parameters for the -output-endianess option.
"host" or "machine" represent the actual byte order of the host CPU in
the current OS.
- Fixed a man page bug that did hide some text from the visible result.
Thanks
to Michael Prokop
- Man page corrected some problems from hypen -> minus
- Removed some Copyright hints to people who did never really enter code
into mkisofs
- Removed a Copyright hint for RSA that is no longer valid.
Readcd:
- Man page corrected some problems from hypen -> minus
Scgcheck:
- Man page corrected some problems from hypen -> minus
Scgskeleton:
- Better support for large files (using ftello()/fseeko())
Btcflash:
- Better support for large files (using ftello()/fseeko())
Mkisofs (Maintained/enhanced by Jörg Schilling since 1997, originated by Eric
Youngdale):
- Better error messages in case that a specific charset translation is not
available.
- Now using HAVE_ICONV_CONST to avoid iconv() related compiler warnings
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:
- Support correct inode numbers for UDF hardlinks
- Support sockets, pipes, char/blk-dev specials with UDF
- 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:
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/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
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/star/
WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
