Stuff that needs to be done and wishlist:
|
|
|
|
These are in no particular order.
|
|
Some might be dupes, some might be done already, some might be bad ideas.
|
|
|
|
|
|
From http://icculus.org/pipermail/physfs/2009-March/000698.html ...
|
|
|
|
- Add an API to find the "pref path" ... this is the directory where an
|
|
app's configuration data is supposed to go...which is usually somewhere
|
|
under the user directory, but not always. As it is platform-dependent,
|
|
platform-version dependent and sometimes even user-dependent, this should be
|
|
handled by the library and not the app.
|
|
- Archives formats provided by the implementation.
|
|
- Write support for various archives. I haven't decided how to do this yet,
|
|
but I'd like to.
|
|
- Replace the existing error strings with something more flexible...right now,
|
|
you have to pick a translation at compile time, which isn't too useful. It
|
|
might be nice to have real error codes for apps instead of just error
|
|
messages for humans, too.
|
|
- UTF-16 support. 2.0.0 only handles UCS-2, which is most of the work, but
|
|
leaves out the "surrogate" codepoints. UTF-16 is a superset of UCS-2.
|
|
Older Windows using Unicode used UCS-2, newer Windows platforms use UTF-16.
|
|
- Add an API to expose a file's extended attributes to the application?
|
|
- Deprecate PHYSFS_setSaneConfig(). It really should have been in the extras
|
|
directory.
|
|
- Clean up the sources to match my ever-changing coding style. :)
|
|
- Remove realpath() for The Hurd, etc.
|
|
- Get current CD list from windows without blocking? Is it possible?
|
|
|
|
|
|
From http://icculus.org/pipermail/physfs/2010-January/000821.html ...
|
|
|
|
- Using error codes instead of error messages
|
|
- Plugin system for the archive handlers
|
|
|
|
|
|
From http://icculus.org/pipermail/physfs/2010-January/000826.html ...
|
|
|
|
- Lua bindings
|
|
|
|
|
|
From http://icculus.org/pipermail/physfs/2010-January/000833.html ...
|
|
|
|
- SWIG bindings
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From old TODO.txt...
|
|
|
|
- Other archivers: perhaps tar(.gz|.bz2), RPM, ARJ, etc. These are less
|
|
important, since streaming archives aren't of much value to games (which
|
|
is why zipfiles are king: random access), but it could have uses for, say,
|
|
an installer/updater.
|
|
- Reduce malloc() pressure all over the place. We fragment memory like mad.
|
|
- profile string list interpolation.
|
|
- We have two different ways to find dir entries in zip.c.
|
|
- Do symlinks in zip archiver work when they point to dirs?
|
|
- Enable more warnings?
|
|
- Use __cdecl in physfs.h?
|
|
- Look for FIXMEs (many marked with "!!!" in comments).
|
|
- Find some way to relax or remove the security model for external tools.
|
|
- OSX shouldn't use ~/.app for userdir.
|
|
- fscanf and fprintf support in extras dir.
|
|
- Why do we call it openArchive and dirClose?
|
|
- Sanity check byte order at runtime.
|
|
- Memory locking?
|
|
- Find a better name than dvoid and fvoid.
|
|
- General code audit.
|
|
- Multiple write dirs with mount points?
|
|
- Replace code from SDL...
|
|
- Should file enumeration return an error or set error state?
|
|
- Need "getmountpoint" command in test_physfs.c ...
|
|
- Write up a simple HOWTO on embedding physicsfs in another project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other stuff I thought of...
|
|
- moar asserts!
|
|
- constify!
|
|
- Does iPhone work?
|
|
- Fix CMake vs Doxygen.
|
|
- Doxygen replacement? (manpages suck.)
|
|
- Fix coding standards to match.
|
|
- See if we can ditch some #include lines...
|
|
- We lost Vista symlink support when removing isSymLink(). Pull it back from
|
|
revision control.
|
|
- PHYSFS_exists() fails if you mountIo with a NULL filename. We need to decide
|
|
how this API should work.
|
|
- ZIP64 support?
|
|
- LZMA support in zip archiver?
|
|
- bzip2 support in zip archiver?
|
|
- rewrite 7zip archiver.
|
|
- ryanify iso9660 code.
|
|
- Examine Chris Nelles's errorcode stuff.
|
|
- Move archiver_qpak.c code to archiver_unpacked.c?
|
|
- Increase smallAlloc threshold?
|
|
- Cache basedir/userdir results (do we do this already?)
|
|
|
|
Probably other stuff. Requests and recommendations are welcome.
