Hi, everybody.

The new version of Rar is not compatible with previous versions, is there anyone working on the version for AmigaOS 4.1?

Thanks, and Happy New Year.

@RIBDEVIL
Are you referring to the XAD RAR that's included with OS4.x or the one at Aminet (xad_rar)?

Sorry, I have not explained well.
I mean that the new version (5.50 from 2017) of winrar or rar.exe under the command line, is not compatible with the versions of AmigaOS that currently exist.
And every time more compressed files appear in this format. For example, the Amiga CD32 Alternate Covers CDs can not be decompressed, it does not give an error, but no file appears.

He's talking about the command line tool: 3.9.7 on OS4Depot.

and probably this one: 5.50 WinRAR...not sure if this possible to port though (or even open sourced...i don't see a source download on a quick check)

I'll have a look at the latest open source UnRAR and see if it can be easily ported.

Latest source should be here: https://github.com/pmachapman/unrar

I was going to download it from https://www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm

Edit: Unfortunately it uses a lot of functions not in our SDK, such as swprintf.

I also have a look at this, and there is not much missing. Only those ones:


wint_t putwchar (wchar_t wc);

long int wcstol (const wchar_t* str, wchar_t** endptr, int base);

wchar_t* fgetws (wchar_t* ws, int num, FILE* stream);

int vfwprintf (FILE* stream, const wchar_t* format, va_list arg);

int vswprintf (wchar_t * ws, size_t len, const wchar_t * format, va_list arg );

int swprintf( wchar_t* buffer, std::size_t size, const wchar_t* format, ... );

Also our old newlib port miss sys/statvfs.h with fsblkcnt_t support, which is also as above funcions can be added directly to port. Sources:

};

}

#endif



#endif /* SYS_STATVFS_H */



#endif /* CPU_NATIVE */

Once i define it all, and do little changes in uowners.cpp (replacing lchown on chown), it compile all obects , and want to be linked.

There is my part of makefile as well:


CXX=ppc-amigaos-c++

CXXFLAGS=-O2

DEFINES=-DBIG_ENDIAN -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_BSD_COMPAT

STRIP=ppc-amigaos-strip

AR=ppc-amigaos-ar

LDFLAGS=-static -lz -lstdc++

DESTDIR=/usr

After sources of above functions will be added to port, and all will be links, then there need to be done usuall amiga specific changes (sources of diffs for which i found in morphos and 68k ports of old versions from the page where you download current sources).

In others words, it can be done more or less easy, imho.

Quite a regular

The latest RAR5-compatible unrar uses various unicode wide-string functions, but I was once corrected when I said those are not available in any OS4 C libraries.

This is just like television, only you can see much further.

There is wide char support in clib2 for certain, whether sufficient for this purpose I don't know.

Thanks, I hoped somebody who knows more about this would chime in. If it has wide character support then vfwprintf and the rest should be in the C library as well. Without those you can't do much with wide char strings. These are the relevant headers:
https://github.com/adtools/clib2/blob/ ... r/library/include/wchar.h
https://github.com/adtools/clib2/blob/ ... /library/include/wctype.h

This is just like television, only you can see much further.
