1 Differences from S3a B_GEN

     2 ==========================

     3 

     4 testnodeinfo: Commented out - dunno what a node info is.

     5 testdeviceinfo: TVolumeInfo structure doesn't contain a version member, test commented out

     6 testfileinfo: TEntry structure doesn't contain a version number, test commented out

     7 

     8 testrename: 

     9 Long filenames are allowed

    10 Test rename of directories across directories: This works - used to return AccessErr

    11 

    12 testDelete: Attempting to delete a directory returns KErrBadName instead of an AccessErr

    13 testUnique: Seeking ie. random access on a temp file is now valid - used to return E_FILE_INV

    14 

    15 testVolumeName:

    16 SetVolumeLabel will set the volume label to any string of 11 chars or less.

    17 

    18 testDir:

    19 All directories require some matching criteria eg: "*" or "*.txt"

    20 Test filenames starting with '.' eg: \\.ZZZ are now legal.

    21 

    22 test.Printf(_L("Test filenames starting with 05/E5\n"));

    23 0xE5 at the start of a filename => a VFAT entry

    24 0x05 at the start of a filename returns an error under NT

    25 

    26 testMedia: Not implemented

    27 testNodeInfo: Not implemented

    28 

    29 testFileInfo: Changed argument values.

    30 Paths are allowed on Z:

    31 Asking for info on a drive that does not exist return KErrBadName not NoFileSystemErr

    32 

    33 test.Printf(_L("Test weird filenames\n"));

    34 All weird names are now valid except _L(" ");

    35 All short names are valid except "" and "\\"

    36 All long names < 256 chars are valid

    37 Dots within a filename are valid

    38 

    39 Test Make directory:

    40 Long directory names are now valid < 256 chars

    41 

    42 Test read of zero bytes:

    43 No longer returns any EofErr. Instead reading zero bytes will zero the length of the buffer.

    44 

    45 Test set file date:

    46 Old test data commented out because NT fails on dates < 1601.

    47 

    48 Interface to Format has changed (will probably be changed back shortly) Test commented out

    49 

    50 Differences between WINS and EPOC platforms

    51 ===========================================

    52 NT will register time differences of less than 30 microseconds FAT needs ~ 1/10 sec

    53 The filename _L("...") -> KErrAccessDenied on NT but is ok on VFAT

    54 0x05 at the start of a filename is disallowed by NT. VFAT will accept 0x05 but doesn't translate it into a 0xE5.

    55 NT will match a single '?' to the _L(".") directory. VFAT never sees '.'
