Open Source C++ File Systems for Mac

VeraCrypt is a free disk encryption software brought to you by IDRIX (https://www.idrix.fr) and based on TrueCrypt 7.1a. It adds enhanced security to the algorithms used for system and partitions encryption making it immune to new developments in brute-force attacks. It also solves many vulnerabilities and security issues found in TrueCrypt. This enhanced security adds some delay ONLY to the opening of encrypted partitions without any performance impact to the application use phase. This is acceptable to the legitimate owner but it makes it much harder for an attacker to gain access to the encrypted data. All released files are PGP signed with key ID=0x680D16DE, available on key servers and downloadable at https://www.idrix.fr/VeraCrypt/VeraCrypt_PGP_public_key.asc VeraCrypt can mount TrueCrypt volumes. It also can convert them to VeraCrypt format. Documentation: https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/Documentation.html FAQ : https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/FAQ.html

Ext2Read is an explorer like utility to explore ext2/ext3/ext4 files. It now supports LVM2 and EXT4 extents. It can be used to view and copy files and folders. It can recursively copy entire folders. It can also be used to view and copy disk and file

The Deduplicating Warp-speed Advanced Read-only File System. A fast high compression read-only file system for Linux and Windows. DwarFS is a read-only file system with a focus on achieving very high compression ratios in particular for very redundant data. This probably doesn't sound very exciting, because if it's redundant, it should compress well. However, I found that other read-only, compressed file systems don't do a very good job at making use of this redundancy. See here for a comparison with other compressed file systems. DwarFS also doesn't compromise on speed and for my use cases, I've found it to be on par with or perform better than SquashFS. For my primary use case, DwarFS compression is an order of magnitude better than SquashFS compression, it's 6 times faster to build the file system, it's typically faster to access files on DwarFS and it uses less CPU resources.

The Sleuth Kit is a C++ library and collection of open source file system forensics tools that allow you to, among other things, view allocated and deleted data from NTFS, FAT, FFS, EXT2, Ext3, HFS+, and ISO9660 images.

This is a header-only single-file std::filesystem compatible helper library, based on the C++17 and C++20 specs, but implemented for C++11, C++14, C++17 or C++20 (tightly following the C++17 standard with very few documented exceptions). It is currently tested on macOS 10.12/10.14/10.15/11.6, Windows 10, Ubuntu 18.04, Ubuntu 20.04, CentOS 7, CentOS 8, FreeBSD 12, Alpine ARM/ARM64 Linux and Solaris 10 but should work on other systems too, as long as you have at least a C++11 compatible compiler. It should work with Android NDK, Emscripten and I even had reports of it being used on iOS (within sandboxing constraints) and with v1.5.6 there is experimental support for QNX. The support of Android NDK, Emscripten, QNX, and since 1.5.14 GNU/Hurd and Haiku is not backed up by automated testing but PRs and bug reports are welcome for those too and they are reported to work.

s3fs allows Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD to mount an S3 bucket via FUSE. s3fs preserves the native object format for files, allowing use of other tools like AWS CLI. Large subset of POSIX including reading/writing files, directories, symlinks, mode, uid/gid, and extended attributes. Compatible with Amazon S3, and other S3-based object stores. Allows random writes and appends, large files via multi-part upload, and renames via server-side copy. User-specified regions, including Amazon GovCloud. Many systems provide pre-built packages. s3fs supports the standard AWS credentials file stored in the credentials folder. Alternatively, s3fs supports a custom passwd file. The default location for the s3fs password file can be created. Generally S3 cannot offer the same performance or semantics as a local file system.

The OFF System for content storage and retrieval, lets you store all digital content and allows only the people authorized to use it to do so. It is the proof of concept for 'bright nets' and will allow anyone to securely share digital data legally.

A Java library that allow Java applications to receive file system events on Windows and Linux.

This is the final release of truecrypt (7.1a) ported to use wxGTK3 instead of 2.8. None of the underlying code has changed, instead the compile errors due to modern distros using and updated version of wxGTK have been resolved (for now).

A virtual floppy drive that mounts image files (*.img) as new browseable computer resources. Tested from WinXP (32bit) to Win7 (64bit). Derived from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/vfd/

QFSViewer is a small tool for developers to view the contents of various file system raw image files, which does not rely on the operating system mounting, does not require permission requests, and is completed entirely within the software application. Based on this feature, the tool can easily run on windows/linux/macos.

AVL Array is a sequence container (like std::vector or std::list) that allows fast insert/remove AND fast random access. Shiftable Files offers the usual file primitives plus fast insert/remove. Get the latest version via BZR in the Develop section.

File Collection Manager is a small program for checking small or large file collections. It can calculate and verify checksums for items in the collection, as well as check that file in the collection that depend on other provided packages in the collect

Single file rename utility which add the current date and time value to the file name.

A multifunctions software to clean up your files with ease. 2 ways are proposed to achieve this : filters and regular expressions. While filters are quick and easy to create, regex are more powerfull and versatile.

EzBasic - A C++ based library, that can be used to make programs using functions as in VB. The library has 25 classes ranging from GUI, Threads, String, Active-X etc.

Atol is a classical dual panel file manager aiming to be portable to both Linux and Windows OS (using C++ and GTK+ toolkit)

An application I have written for managing external hard drives and other things, where the default windows-autostart fails. I have written it for myself cause couldn't find anything similiar and I think it might be usefull for others too. Enjoy...

BiosDiskIO is a library of Int 13h PC BIOS Disk Operations. The primary purpose is to provide quick-and-dirty access to low-level disk services, especially for file system developers and forensic analysts.

Derived from TrueCrypt 6.3 release, I added some command line options to "TrueCrypt Format.exe" to allow TrueCrypt volumes to be created without using the graphical user interface
