#1 Burning Software

Hi,

There's a problem with the "DiscAtOnceFromTree.c" sample of the StarBurn SDK.

I believe the sample to be simple and intended to show basic StarBurn SDK functionality, thus if it works incorrectly, it is hard to hope my application will work OK since it based on the same functions.

* * *

The program burns the file tree to the CD-RW and exits without failure.

However, when I try to access some folders on the disk just has been burned, "File not found" error occurs. Furthermore, some files on the burned CD are located in different folders as they were in the source directory.

* * *

It is very simple to reproduce this error.

Folder stucture of the source
---------------------------------
(folder names are proceeded with backslash "\\", files are not; contents of the files doesn't matter, in my case they consist of one or two symbols; I could email you .rar archive (~2Kb) with my files if necessary):

C:\MyTrial\

C:\MyTrial\MyTrial.dsw
C:\MyTrial\MyTrial.ncb
C:\MyTrial\MyTrial.opt


C:\MyTrial\client\

C:\MyTrial\server\
C:\MyTrial\server\Debug\
C:\MyTrial\server\server.cpp
C:\MyTrial\server\server.dsp
C:\MyTrial\server\server.plg

I run the DiscAtOnceFromTree.exe application:

DiscAtOnceFromTree.exe 1 0 0 0 C:\MyTrial 0

(1.0.0.0 is address of my "SONY CD-RW CRX230ED" drive G:_)

As i wrote above, application burns CD and exits successfully.

but

G:\Mon_Jul_04_18_21_11_2005\client\Debug - "File not found**"
G:\Mon_Jul_04_18_21_11_2005\CoolClient\Debug - "File not found**"
G:\Mon_Jul_04_18_21_11_2005\CoolClient\res - "File not found**"

G:\Mon_Jul_04_18_21_11_2005\CoolServer\Debug - contains files from the C:\MyTrial\CoolClient\Debug directory

G:\Mon_Jul_04_18_21_11_2005\CoolServer\Release - "File not found**"

G:\Mon_Jul_04_18_21_11_2005\CoolServer\res - contains files from the C:\MyTrial\CoolClient\res directory

** - These folders are enumerated OK by Far Manager or Explorer, but when trying to enter one of them, got "File not found"

I tested burning this folder structure on two machines (Win2000 Pro SP4) and three different devices: SONY CD-RW CRX230ED, IOMEGA ZIPCD 650 USB, LG (don't remember the model exactly). The result is THE SAME as described above.
I tested with SDK of version 5.2.22 and 5.5.26

For other folder structures, this error wasn't occur.
For example, "E:\Work\Starburn SDK" burned perfectly

Could you please make your suggestions?

Dear Sir,

yes, it would be a good idea if you'd e-mail me whole file system structure to anton@rocketdivision.com so I'd try to reproduce the problem. Are you sure latest build of the StarBurn is still problematic? We've been fixing some tree management problems BEFORE latest release.

Thank you!

I was not able to reproduce your problem here on any single machine so I'm waiting for archived file set. Thank you!

Dear Anton,
thank you for the reply.

I've checked the version of the SDK I use and found that version is 5.2.22 (previous version). I copied "StarBurn.dll" and "WnASPI32.dll" from the new SDK (5.5.26) to the "SYSTEM32" and the sample works OK so far.

That was my fault, not yours

Thank you again for assistance.

So you've just confirmed we had problems with the previous build and now they are gone. Thank you!
