NAME
Sys::Filesystem::Darwin - Return Darwin (Mac OS X) filesystem information to Sys::Filesystem
SYNOPSIS
See Sys::Filesystem.
DESCRIPTION
The filesystem information is taken from diskutil, the system utility supplied on Mac OS X.
INHERITANCE
Sys::Filesystem::Darwin
ISA Sys::Filesystem::Unix
ISA UNIVERSAL
METHODS
version ()
Return the version of the (sub)module.
ATTRIBUTES
The following is a list of filesystem properties which may be queried as methods through the parent Sys::Filesystem object.
The property 'label' is also set, but cannot be queried by Sys::Filesystem yet.
mount_point
The mount point (usually either '/' or '/Volumes/...').
device
The mounted device
format
Describes the type of the filesystem. So far I encountered the following types:
hfs The standard Mac OS X HFS(+) filesystem. Disk images (.dmg) and Mac Software DVDs normally also use the HFS(+) format.
msdos
DOS image files (e.g. floppy disk images)
cd9660
CD-ROM image files or real CD-ROMs
cddafs
Audio CDs
udf UDF filesystem (e.g. DVDs)
(empty)
For mounted FTP servers, disktool returns an empty filesystem type (ie, '').
BUGS
Doesn't take /etc/fstab or /etc/xtab into account right now, since they are normally not used. Contact the author if you need this.
