[flexspin][vfs] accessing fs structure/file-specific data from spin2?
in Propeller 2
Hey folks,
Is something like what @Wuerfel_21 has done with a C object here (from MegaYume's fsadapter.c)
#include <compiler.h>
#include <dirent.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
char *get_name_for_dirent(struct dirent *d) {
return d->d_name;
}
int get_type_for_dirent(struct dirent *d) {
switch(d->d_type) {
case DT_REG:
return 2;
case DT_DIR:
return 1;
default:
return 0;
}
}
int get_type_for_path(const char *path) {
struct stat buf;
if(!stat(path,&buf)) {
if (S_ISDIR(buf.st_mode)) return 1;
if (S_ISREG(buf.st_mode)) return 2;
}
}
int exists(const char *path) {
struct stat buf;
return stat(path,&buf) == 0;
}
the only way to access things like dirent structs (more generally, to read directory entries) from spin2? If it is that's fine, I just didn't see a documented way to do something like create a dirent struct directly from spin2.
Cheers

The fsadapter stuff (and the whole file browser thing it's attached to) is a few years old, maybe there actually is a better way now that Spin2 has actual structure types. IDK if the libc object would be exporting these though...
