Malformed filelists being generated

[maksis]

From http://adc.sourceforge.net/ADC.html#_file_names_and_structure :

each file or directory name must be unique in a case-insensitive context

Eiskalt seems to be ignoring the specs: cbc3ae5 (ShareManager section)

yes this bugs affects lot of linux users that shares dc server with windows users aind airdc, it shoud ignore case sensitive duplicates o rename them in filelists.

[22:51:43] I guess it has to do with Linux having case sensitive folders unlike windows 
[22:52:03] Hard to fix on Linux because then the directories would conflate.

[22:52:32] i'd say that it has more to do with your client that isn't handling those correctly
[22:52:49] airdc won't generate such filelists
[22:52:52] dc++ neither
[22:53:41] Because it relies on case insensitive path names?
[22:54:50] yes, specifically to avoid such cases
[22:55:25] #359
[22:59:20] I can try to write a patch then. How would you handle the case of colliding filenames?
[22:59:34] combine the directories
[22:59:52] What if the collision happens for the files themselves?
[23:00:06] you might want to check out the code from dc++
[23:00:33] hmm, i think it adds numbers after the duplicates
[23:00:41] Do they handle that? I thought they went for the Windows assumption that they remain the same.
[23:02:44] I'll try to check that and write a patch then
[23:03:00] Thanks maksalaatikko !

So:

1. Check how this is handled on DC++, removing folders is a bad idea so either merge or rename.
2. Fix the code that generates the xml file.

Maybe you should remove ips from the log, anyway thanks for keep alive this bug and try to fix it.

[klondi]

IPs? Which IPs? :P

Bump!
