#91 closed defect (invalid)

Mixed case 8.3 directories are invisible in MDOS box

Reported by: Herwig Bauernfeind Owned by: nobody
Priority: blocker Milestone: Netdrive plugin 1.5 beta 1
Component: Samba Client Plugin Version: NDP 1.5 beta 1

Description

While mixed case files are visible in the MDOS box as long as they are 8.3 compliant (and if Ticket #63 does not apply aka no umlauts), directories are only visible in the MDOS box if

  • they are 8.3 compliant AND
  • they are all upper case AND (that's wrong)
  • there are no umlauts (that's wrong, too)

in the name.

Note: With LAN Requester both files and directories with mixed case and/or umlauts are visible in the MDOS box, as long as they are 8.3 compliant.

[10:25]	<sunlover>	netdrive/evfs filters out mixed case 8.3 names. this is of course incorrect.
[10:30]	<HerwigB>	Thanks
[10:30]	<HerwigB>	Will this be corrected?

[10:33]	<HerwigB>	It seems that also Umlauts are filtered - umlauts are basically valid in MDOS as long as the name complies with 8.3
[10:54]	<sunlover>	yes, umlauts are most likely filtered too. I simply used there a wrong function to detect 8.3 names
