Managing ADF files: adflib V0.9.0 for Windows, Linux and macOS
Laurent Clevy first released adflib in 1999 in version 0.7.8 (Aminet). The portable C library, written mainly in C, is used to manage Amiga-formatted devices such as hard disks and ZIP disks or to swap them out via the .ADF format (amiga-news.de reported). The library is currently being developed under the responsibility of Tomasz Wolak. Changes in version 0.9.0:
- improved write support (block allocation bitmap checking and rebuilding)
- new unified api for all devices, allowing to implement new device drivers in client code
- possibility to enable/disable device drivers
- added a new device: ramdisk
- improved and better tested salvage code (still experimental!)
- cleaned-up and improved library API (ie. separated namespace)
- added new command-line utilities:adf_bitmap, adf_salvage
- many bugfixes and internal improvements
- dual license (GPL-2+ or LGPL2.1+)
