#11023: zip loses all the file's attributes, when attributes > 64 KiB -----------------------------------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: bbjimmy | Owner: nobody Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: high | Milestone: R1/beta1 Component: Applications/Command Line Tools | Version: Resolution: fixed | R1/Development Blocked By: | Keywords: Has a Patch: 0 | Blocking: | Platform: All -----------------------------------------------+--------------------------- Comment (by korli): For reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_%28file_format%29#File_headers {{{ Offset Bytes Description[25] 28 2 Extra field length (m) }}} The allowed length of 2 bytes limits the attributes to be stored per file. This is on par with what MacOS [https://searchcode.com/codesearch/view/12515537/#l-511 implemented]. Going beyond this limit is an enhancement, not an issue. -- Ticket URL: <https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/11023#comment:9> Haiku <https://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
