Hi Hidetoshi,

I think the idea of the patch is good, but please move qemu_utimensat()
to oslib-posix.c and provide a wrapper for oslib-win32.c. It is
emulation for a system library function, so it doesn't belong in
cutils.c, but rather in the oslib group.

Thanks,
Jes

 Hi Hidetoshi,
 
 I think the idea of the patch is good, but please move qemu_utimensat()
 to oslib-posix.c and provide a wrapper for oslib-win32.c. It is
 emulation for a system library function, so it doesn't belong in
 cutils.c, but rather in the oslib group.

Unfortunately one fact is that I'm not familiar with win32 codes so I don't
have any idea how the wrapper for win32 will be...
If someone could kindly tell me about the win32 part, I could update this
patch to v5, but even though I have no test environment for the new part :-

Could we wait an incremental patch on this v4?
Can somebody help me?  Volunteers?


Thanks,
H.Seto

Hi Hidetoshi,

I don't actually know much about win32 myself, the only thing I do is to
try and cross-compile for it using mingw32 to make sure the build
doesn't break. One option is to leave it open, or put in a dummy wrapper
which asserts in the win32 part of the code, so that someone who is
interested in win32 can fix it up.

That should be pretty easy to do, and I think thats a fine starting point.

Cheers,
Jes
