About:
libferris is a virtual filesystem that exposes
hierarchical data of all kinds through a common
C++ interface. Access to data is performed using
C++ IOStreams and Extended Attributes (EA) can be
attached to each file or directory to present
metadata. Ferris uses a plugin API to read various
data sources and expose them as filesystems and to
generate interesting EA. Current implementations
include native (kernel disk IO with fam), XML (mount an XML file as a filesystem), DB4, xmldb, Evolution, Firefox, Emacs, LDAP, HTTP, FTP, eet,
sockets, RDF/XML, RDF/bdb, and mbox. EA generators
include image, audio, and animation decoders.
Release focus: Minor feature enhancements
Changes:
Initial support for strigi was added with both
metadata extraction and fulltext search
federation. A new Fedora 7 yum repository was
added. A minor fix was made to getImageCache() for
better atexit() functionality. A very minor update
was made for XQilla 1.0.1 compatability. Mounted
XML now reports Extended Attributes as XSD_UNKNOWN
where no schema exists. Updates were made to
configure.ac for Fedora 7 machines.
