libext2fs-wii is a port of the libext2fs driver to the Nintendo GameCube/Wii, modeled on the libntfs interface.
Features
- EXT2/EXT3/EXT4 file systems support
- Full read/write, files of any size can be created, modified, renamed, moved, or deleted.
- Compression, read/write support for compressed files
- Symbolic link and directory junction walking
- Journaling system
Getting the latest sources
To grab the latest and greatest copy of the sources just type:
svn checkout http://libext2fs-wii.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
Compiling and Installing
Make sure you have devkitPPC and the latest libogc installed. Then from the sources root directory, type:
make make install # or 'sudo make install' if you aren't root.
To compile a debug version with a console print out of the debug information, type:
make debug # or 'sudo make debug' if you aren't root.
Usage
Related routines can be accessed by adding the following line to your source file(s).
#include <ext2.h>
When compiling you must also link against libext2fs. To do this, add -lext2fs to the LIBS section of your application Makefile; for example:
LIBS := -lwiiuse -lbte -lext2fs -lfat -logc -lm
For a more practical example of using libext2fs in your application, see it's implementation in WiiXplorer.
