file names changed with tilda "~"

[ZarZar]

Hi There,

I have been trying to write to flash. I have the following entry in my CMakeLists.txt

Code: Select all

fatfs_create_rawflash_image(storage ../site/dist FLASH_IN_PROJECT)

One of the files I have is named index-DiwrgTda.css

I use the following code to enumerate through the files.

Code: Select all

 DIR *d;
    struct dirent *dir;
    d = opendir("/store/assets");
    if (d)
    {
        while ((dir = readdir(d)) != NULL)
        {
            printf("%s\n", dir->d_name);
        }
        closedir(d);
    }

The results seem to have changed the file name to look like the following
INDEX-~1.CSS

Hence the files are not what I expect them to be.
Any help as to why this is would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

You probably want to turn on support for long filenames in FAT in menuconfig.

Support for long filenames in FAT in menuconfig is turned on.

4 files are placed on the FAT :
index.html
/assets/react-CHdo91hT.svg
/assets/index-DiwrgTda.css
/assets/index-MJNRYYyu.js

CMakeList.txt :

Code: Select all

fatfs_create_rawflash_image(storage ../site/dist FLASH_IN_PROJECT)

Listing from FAT /store/assets is :
REACT-~1.SVG
INDEX-~1.CSS
index-mjnryyyu.js

2 files have a modified name with a "~".

Weird. If you indeed get "index-mjnryyyu.js" back from the esp-idf programs listing, long filenames is working, as otherwise filenames would be limited to 8.3 characters. I have no idea why this would happen with some files but not with others.

Hi, what ESP-IDF version are you using? If you can, try to update it to v5.2 to see if this persist.

[ZarZar]

I'm using ESP-IDF version 5.0.4.

I will try to update to 5.2 and report back.

Hi There,

the new version ESP-IDF 5.2.1 solved my problem with files on FAT.
The file names are now preserved.

Thanks
