Filesystems in R2, R3, ....

Forum thread started by Xab on Thu, 2008-02-14 19:58

Hi,

What class of filesystem do you have to plan to have for R2 and so on? For R1, for backward-compat, I think you implement a kind of BFS. But for next releases do you have to plan to change it? For example, introducing snapshoting (like ext3cow or ZFS)

Thanks,
Xan.

images in qemu

Forum thread started by tdobson on Sat, 2007-12-29 23:30

Hi.
I seem to be having some minor trouble running the daily built vmware/QEmu images of haiku. Yeah I know they aren't meant to be "Stable" but that isn't exactly the problem I have been having.
The problem I'm having is that it doesn't seem to boot past the BIOS, which I'm sure can't be right. In fact I tried several images, but with identical results. A screenshot of what the problem is can be found here: http://image.bayimg.com/hailgaabj.jpg
but basically it seems that HD 1 is not detected.

To be honest. The problem is probably me not knowing how to use QEmu or something like that, but I just wondered if anyone else could shed any light on this?

For the record I'm on debian etch, with qemu 0.8.2

Apologies if I should have rtfm.

cheers

input_server add-on - stdout?

Forum thread started by breakerbar on Tue, 2007-12-11 02:23

Hi,

I'm messing around with an input_server filter, and I was trying to log a few BMessages so that I could get an idea of what they look like.

BMessage has a PrintToStream method that will print the BMessage out to stdout, but is there anyway to intercept stdout from the input_server?

Thanks...

Render Window to memory buffer

Is there any way to render a full window and its content to a memory buffer ? in R5 or Haiku ? :) (Preferably both) :)

Haiku and apps ready for video editing

Forum thread started by skelter on Sun, 2007-10-07 22:48

I have a spare AMD box and I am thinking about installing Haiku if it can help me towards my actual goal to get some video editing of some family camcorder videos. I remember the BeOS was supposed to have some surprisingly good video tools and apps available, but I have not really paid attention since the demise of the BeBox. I've been poking around haiku-os.org, looking through the faq, screenshots and flash videos, looking for a summary of where the OS is at and what apps are available and trying to find some indication of video editing apps, but I guess those were on the proprietary branch of the old OS.

Is that accurate? or am I missing something?

PPC Port

Forum thread started by gall1314 on Thu, 2007-10-04 09:21

I'd like to volunteer to work on a PPC port of Haiku.

My programming skills are a little rusty (I took 2 years of C++ 5 years ago). But, I'd be willing to give it a shot. I may not be able to write anything advanced, but I've got time and patience to help build PPC binaries.

I use a 12" Powerbook G4 that I can't bring myself to replace...

I used BeOS R5 on a desktop before I switched back to Mac. I loved it, but I jumped ship when the company folded.

Problem to convert my application

Forum thread started by greg2 on Mon, 2007-10-01 19:21

Hi,

I want to convert one of my application to haiku. Because Haiku is not available, i use BeOs DevEd with BeIDE. But i have a problem when i compile it:

Quote:

Error : anonymous class type not used to declare any objects
AN8X.h line 143 };

This is a part of my code:

Quote:

class AN8XVECTOR4{
public:
union {
struct {
float x,y,z,w;
};
struct
{
float s,t,r,q;
};
};

AN8XVECTOR4()
{
x=0.0f;y=0.0f;z=0.0f;w=0.0f;
};
AN8XVECTOR4( float x , float y , float z, float w )
{
this->x = x; this->y = y; this->z = z;this->w = w;
}
};

I am not an expert in C++ but it should work ? It work very well under Linux and under Windows (Visual 2005 and DevCpp).

I have also some error with std::vector
