Hi,
in Linux I use another library. With libattr-devel you can access reiserfs extended attribute support. It’s different to xattr. I’m writing a binding to do this.

Hi,
I am written a mono application, how can I get uid for the user ?
Mono.Unix.Syscall is working on windows?, or how can I find out if the user is the administrator ?

In linux is easy, but I want my application to be crossplatform.

We’ll include reiser4 support if someone writes the code. I’m certain that its possible, at least I hope the reiser4 developers haven’t deviated too much off the existing system, but none of us use reiser4 or know how it works.

Edit: To clarify, I’m referring to beagle. I have no idea whether Mono.Unix would accept bindings for reiser4 feature at this stage.

Hi it’s me again.

I saw this blog and couldn’t help remembering a chat I had on #dashboard with some beagle developers.

Now before I mention the “r” word, I want to say I am aware of all the shortcoming of it, and I am aware it is experimental.
It’s “reiser4″. /me ducks

I was thinking with an abstraction like this one, would it be possible to make some glue to the reiser4 xattr API ( the one using plugins ) ? Beagle doesn’t need to know about the underlying filesystem anyway.

This is just a shot in the dark, it might be rediculous, silly, useless, undoble, too early etc..
