DOSFS Free FAT12/FAT16/FAT32 FilesystemCurrent version: 1.03 (9/30/06 bugfix release; refer readme.txt in distribution archive). Version Update: There are a couple of bugs in 1.03 that will be fixed in 1.04; one relates to a corner case in FAT12 cluster allocation, and the other relates to files in the root directory. I also have some performance improvements and new features queued up for 1.05. Please note that the readme for 1.03 still says 1.02, which is in fact a meta-bug! Currently I am expecting to release 1.04 in the last week of August, though it is possible it will see the open air earlier. DOSFS is a FAT-compatible filesystem intended for fairly low-end embedded applications. It is not the leanest possible implementation (the leanest FAT implementations operate in << 512 bytes of RAM, with heavy restrictions). This code strikes a good balance between size and functionality, with an emphasis on RAM footprint. Intended target systems would be in the ballpark of 1K RAM, 4K ROM or more. The exact size of the binary will depend on your compiler and the runtime library you are using. Features:
Applications:
There is no technical support for this free product; however, if you have questions or suggestions, you are encouraged to contact Lewin Edwards. If you need custom additions to the code, or if you have other projects for which you need assistance, I will be happy to work with you!
