FAT Long File Names
|
|||
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
NOTE: If CONFIG_FAT_LFN is defined in your NuttX configuration file, then
|
|||
|
there may be some legal, patent issues. The following was extracted from
|
|||
|
the entry "File Allocation Table from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
"On December 3, 2003 Microsoft announced it would be offering licenses
|
|||
|
for use of its FAT specification and 'associated intellectual property',
|
|||
|
at the cost of a US$0.25 royalty per unit sold, with a $250,000 maximum
|
|||
|
royalty per license agreement.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
o "U.S. Patent 5,745,902 (http://www.google.com/patents?vid=5745902) -
|
|||
|
Method and system for accessing a file using file names having
|
|||
|
different file name formats. ...
|
|||
|
o "U.S. Patent 5,579,517 (http://www.google.com/patents?vid=5579517) -
|
|||
|
Common name space for long and short filenames. ...
|
|||
|
o "U.S. Patent 5,758,352 (http://www.google.com/patents?vid=5758352) -
|
|||
|
Common name space for long and short filenames. ...
|
|||
|
o "U.S. Patent 6,286,013 (http://www.google.com/patents?vid=6286013) -
|
|||
|
Method and system for providing a common name space for long and
|
|||
|
short file names in an operating system. ...
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
"Many technical commentators have concluded that these patents only cover
|
|||
|
FAT implementations that include support for long filenames, and that
|
|||
|
removable solid state media and consumer devices only using short names
|
|||
|
would be unaffected. ..."
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
So you have been forewarned: Use the long filename at your own risk!

uIP
|
|||
|
^^^
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Many lower-level networking components of NuttX derive from uIP which
|
|||
|
has a similar BSD style license:

IGMP support, if enabled in uIP, adds additional logic by Steve Reynolds:

the NuttX license. The University of California code uses the original

BSD license and requires that I state the following:

If you enable floating point conversions with CONFIG_LIBC_FLOATINGPOINT,
|

|
then some files with an unmodified BSD license will be included. That
|

|
license is similar to the above (modified) BSD license, but has an
|
|||
|
additional requirement that I state the following:
