Hello, I am currently updating the bart utility to output XML manifests. In order to scale well to large filesystems I think it will be necessary to sort the order of collection rather than the collected data.
It does not looks like solaris' libc has anything appropriate, but I see that libast includes ftwalk(3) and beneath that is what looks like a general purpose fts(3) implementation which is what is really needed. (libast is ksh93 project private in PSARC/2006/550) I'd like to use fts_open(), fts_read(), etc in my prototype and ask our ARC sponsor to setup a contract for these interfaces if that is agreeable to members of the ksh93 project? Thanks, -Will
