[Bug 19356] New: some features for winepath to make it better work in scripts
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19356 Summary: some features for winepath to make it better work in scripts Product: Wine Version: 1.0.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: programs AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: HoraK-FDF(a)gmx.de Hi, i'm currently working on a bash script that must handle DOS paths and so i found some things that would make winepath better for scripts. first thing: If u have the DOS path C:\nop and convert it to unix style u get /root/.wine/dosdevices/c:/nop but for some scripts you need the real mounted path that would be in my case /mnt/C/nop. To get this done with bash i must cut out the /root/.wine/dosdevices/c: make an REALPATH=$(df /root/.wine/dosdevices/c: | cut -d ' ' -f 25) (REALPATH is than /mnt/C) and combine it with the /nop that takes much time in bash if winepath can do this by it self that would be a giant speed up, bound this to an option like -r --realmountedpath or so would be great. secound thing: If a file lies on the dos dirve G:\file.nfo and the drive is assigned with winecfg to ../dosdevices/k: winepath outputs ../dosdevices/g:/file.nfo witch results to that the file cannot be found because its on ../dosdevices/k:/file.nfo. So you must have all drives exactly assigned like the would appear on real DOS (G:\ = ../dosdevices/g:). This can be avoided with checking the wine config, a option like -c --checkwinecfg would do it. ... greetings HoraK-FDF -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

readlink(1) is your friend.
secound thing: If a file lies on the dos dirve G:\file.nfo and the drive is assigned with winecfg to ../dosdevices/k: winepath outputs ../dosdevices/g:/file.nfo witch results to that the file cannot be found because its on ../dosdevices/k:/file.nfo.

There's no wine config, it's all in the symlinks. Making a drive symlink pointing to another drive is not a good idea anyway. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Hi Alexandre, for the first thing: thank you for the tip, readlink -f "link/dir/file" works but it's allways a extra step if winepath make this alone it would be much better/faster. for the secound: so winecfg makes an readlink every time started for every link in dosdevices to get the mountpath of the symlinks? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Not really, it has to do roughly the same amount of work. I'd be extremely surprised if performance was an issue here.
for the secound: so winecfg makes an readlink every time started for every link in dosdevices to get the mountpath of the symlinks?
Pretty much yes. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
