Available Packages
Name : physfs
Version : 3.0.2
Release : 7.el8
Architecture : x86_64
Size : 86 k
Source : physfs-3.0.2-7.el8.src.rpm
Repository : epel
Summary : Library to provide abstract access to various archives

License : zlib
Description : PhysicsFS is a library to provide abstract access to various archives. It is
: intended for use in video games, and the design was somewhat inspired by Quake
: 3's file subsystem. The programmer defines a "write directory" on the physical
: filesystem. No file writing done through the PhysicsFS API can leave that
: write directory, for security. For example, an embedded scripting language
: cannot write outside of this path if it uses PhysFS for all of its I/O, which
: means that untrusted scripts can run more safely. Symbolic links can be
: disabled as well, for added safety. For file reading, the programmer lists
: directories and archives that form a "search path". Once the search path is
: defined, it becomes a single, transparent hierarchical filesystem. This makes
: for easy access to ZIP files in the same way as you access a file directly on
: the disk, and it makes it easy to ship a new archive that will override a
: previous archive on a per-file basis. Finally, PhysicsFS gives you
: platform-abstracted means to determine if CD-ROMs are available, the user's
: home directory, where in the real filesystem your program is running, etc.
