Hi Luc,
I use the value of
f_fstypename in the statfs struct to determine volume format for an app that I wrote that only targeted Xsan volumes.
What specific information are you looking for?
Cheers, Joannou.

Hi,
I've been looking for a way to get information about volumes (removable, CD, FW, iPod, HD, etc.). So far I've been using getFileSystemInfoForPath and statfs but unless I'm not using the correctly, I don't really get any information about what I'm looking for.
Here's the code I'm using:
while (file = [enumerator nextObject])
{
NSString* strFile = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%s%s", "/Volumes/", [file cString]];
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] getFileSystemInfoForPath:strFile isRemovable:&bIsRemovable isWritable:&bIsWritable isUnmountable:&bIsUnmountable description:&strDesc type:&strType];
[enumerator skipDescendents];
struct statfs b;
statfs( [strFile cString], &b );
NSDictionary* dir = [enumerator directoryAttributes];
[self addVolume:file icon:@"VOL"];
}
First, strDesc and strType are always null. Is there anything helpful in the statfs struct that could help me find the information I'm looking for?
Thanks!
