RL-FlashFS EFS date and time

@Marc Crandall

Hello,

I'm using RL-FlashFS with 2 file systems one on a USB MSD (FAT) the other on NOR Flash (EFS).

I've implmented the two time functions:

fs_get_time and fs_get_date.

These appear to be working as expected for the USB FAT file system but it seems the EFS does not call these functions.

I can't find any reference that says the EFS does not use a time stamp.

  • How do I get the proper time/date info with a file on EFS file system?
  • If you can't does this not cause a problem with the webserver with regards to browser caching?

Thanks

    From the RL-ARM User's Guide section on EFS:

    Note

    Embedded File System does not support directories or folders.
    File names are preprocessed to remove the path information for non-FAT file systems.
    The timestamp information for the file is not supported.

    So unfortunately you don't get support for file time/date stamps on your EFS volume.

    ¦If you can't does this not cause a problem with the webserver with regards to browser caching?

    This I cannot help with.
