Don't use string concatenation with __FUNCTION__ as gcc-3.x don't like it.

2002/07/02 23:47:10-00:00 !antona
Global replacement of __[su]{8,16,32,64} with [su]{8,16,32,64} and layout.h define it.

2002/06/05 20:32:53-00:00 !antona
Mft mirror now updated from ntfs_write_mft_record, yey! Fixup ntfstools accordingly.

2002/06/05 00:29:19-00:00 !antona
Make ntfs_attr_pread work with resident attributes and start on ntfs_attr_pwrite (incomplete!).

2002/06/04 12:12:42-00:00 !antona
Final POSIXification of disk_io functions. (famous last words)

2002/06/01 00:41:45-00:00 !antona
huge update!

2002/04/29 01:53:55-00:00 !antona
Loads of stuff. Improvements, start on attr pread and attr mst_pread. Write to follow. ntfslabel cleanup and extensions. libntfs cleanups, fixes, etc.

2002/04/18 18:15:46-00:00 !antona
Define API for bootsect.[ch]: is_boot_sector_ntfs().

2002/04/16 15:34:32-00:00 !antona
Fix the library...

2002/04/15 20:04:27-00:00 !antona
Fix all compiler warnings that came up with -Wall. Enabled -Wall for ./configure --enable-debug everywhere. Fix a few bugs in mkntfs that came up in the warnings (just error code paths, nothing major).

2002/04/15 18:39:37-00:00 !antona
Cleanup some mistakes.

2002/04/15 17:51:26-00:00 !antona
read/write_mft_record(s) are here

2002/04/15 00:42:07-00:00 !antona
Big rewrite of disk_io.c. Now should have stable API for low level disk access. Move all mft record related stuff from disk_io.c to mft.c.

2002/04/14 15:26:23-00:00 !antona
Remove find_first_attr and make all users use get_attr_search_ctx + find_attr instead.

2002/04/14 14:08:30-00:00 !antona
Cleanup library code. Throw away unused stuff.

2001/06/01 02:07:26-00:00 !antona
It has been a long time since last commit. At moment have done a lot of work
on mkntfs but also at the moment ntfsfix and ntfsdump_logfile and libntfs are
broken. Basically only mkntfs works and that is not complete either.

2001/04/11 15:29:39-00:00 !flatcap
minor build fixes

2001/04/11 14:29:12-00:00 !antona
Almost fixed compilaton. Remember to declare a struct type with
struct NAME { declaration }; rather than the bogus struct { declaration NAME };
then can use typedef NAME othername; on a forward declaration of NAME
(struct NAME;) and all is fine...

2001/04/11 11:49:16-00:00 !antona

Header file reorganisation so that it compiles.

2001/04/08 03:02:55-00:00 !antona
Added cvs Id header.

2001/04/05 20:14:45-00:00 !antona
Commit of current state of development including locking a la kernel.
This doesn't work on user space (semaphores don't work).
Just want to have it committed. Will take out locking / modify it where
necessary to use pthreads ASAP.

2001/04/03 22:42:42-00:00 !antona
See last commit message.

2001/04/02 02:04:37-00:00 !antona
Everything compiles again! Yey! (Don't know about working though, haven't tried
it... So be careful...)
The definitely final find_{first_}attr() functions are in place. Currently
still no support for attribute lists.
The two new _RE files contain the C-fied and more or less (more less than more
actually) cleaned up functions from the ntfs driver. Once they are cleaned
up (find_attr() is already completed but I left it in the _RE files for future
reference/educational value) and modified to suit my ideas of how they should
work, which are not quite the same as the driver way, they will make it into
attrib.[ch].
If anyone gives the new code a try, I would be interested in whether it worked
or not... (-;

2001/03/26 04:34:20-00:00 !antona
typo fix

2001/03/26 04:28:07-00:00 !antona

2001/03/05 03:04:40-00:00 !antona
Corresponding changes to the library.

2001/03/02 15:05:53-00:00 !antona
Commit latest library state. !!!NOTE!!! This breaks everything!!! I'm in the
middle of rewritting the find_attribute stuff in attrib.c at the moment.

2001/01/26 00:34:10-00:00 !antona
Added disk io functions file.

(Logical change 1.5)

Linux-NTFS
==========

The Linux-NTFS project aims to bring full support for the NTFS filesystem to
the Linux operating system.

Linux-NTFS is copyright (c) 2000-2002 Anton Altaparmakov.

All of the contents of the Linux-NTFS project are free software, released under
the GNU General Public License and you are welcome to redistribute them under
certain conditions.
All the libraries and utilities come with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details
read the GNU General Public License to be found in the file COPYING in the main
Linux-NTFS distribution directory.
 
Linux-NTFS currently consists of the NTFS library (libntfs) and utilities
(ntfstools). In the future it will also contain a new NTFS driver for the
Linux kernel.

The Linux-NTFS project is registered on Sourceforge.net. The home page for
Linux-NTFS is http://linux-ntfs.sf.net/ and the project page is:
http://sf.net/projects/linux-ntfs/

If you would like to take part in the development of Linux-NTFS, you are
invited to subscribe to the development mailing list,
linux-ntfs-dev@lists.sourceforge.net. The easiest way to do this is to visit
the list page on sourceforge at:
	http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-ntfs-dev

If you would like to be kept up to date about new releases and other Linux-NTFS
announcements, subscribe to the linux-ntfs-announce mailing list (very low
volume). The easiest way to do this is to visit the list page on sourceforge at:

NTFS library
============

Provides common NTFS access functions to the ntfstools and other foreign
open source applications. Note, that the library is still under heavy
development and doesn't include the majority of functionality yet. It only
is capable of just about supporting the current ntfstools, so I wouldn't 
recommend using it for your own applications at this stage.

NTFS utilities
==============

The ntfstools will eventually include utilities for doing all required tasks
to NTFS partitions. In general, just run a utility without any command line
options to display the version number and usage syntax.

The following utilities are so far implemented:

NtfsFix - Attempt to fix an NTFS partition that has been damaged by the Linux
NTFS driver. Note that you should run it every time after you have used the
Linux NTFS driver to write to an NTFS partition to prevent massive data
corruption from happening when Windows mounts the partition.
IMPORTANT: Run this only *after* unmounting the partition in Linux but *before*
rebooting into Windows NT/2000 or you *will* suffer! - You have been warned!
See man 8 ntfsfix for details.

mkntfs - Format a partition with the NTFS filesystem. See man 8 mkntfs for
command line options.

ntfslabel - Display/change the label of an NTFS partition. See man 8 ntfslabel
for details.

ntfsundelete - Recover deleted files from an NTFS volume.  See man 8
ntfsundelete for more details.
