[PB6.20-beta2] User-PureLibrary filenames are written in lowercase

[Sicro]

Is it intentional that the User-PureLibrary file is created with a lowercase name on Linux? On Windows, the filename is as specified with the “--output” parameter.

[mk-soft]

Makes sense, because Linux file system is case sensitive

[Fred]

Yes it's done like that for official libs to reduce errors

[Sicro]

Yes, almost all Linux distributions use the default setting for the file system, which is case-sensitive.

Yes, it makes sense.

I encountered this behavior when I created a PureLibrary:

Code: Select all

$ pbcompilerc Test.pb --purelibrary --output TestLib
PureBasic 6.20 Beta 2 - C Backend (Linux - x64)
Loading external modules...
Starting compilation...
67 lines processed.
Creating threaded version of the PureLibrary...
Starting compilation...
67 lines processed.
PureLibrary successfully created: "/home/alexander/purebasic/purelibraries/userlibraries/TestLib"

Later, I wanted to delete the PureLibrary again:

Code: Select all

$ rm /home/alexander/purebasic/purelibraries/userlibraries/TestLib 
rm: cannot remove '/home/alexander/purebasic/purelibraries/userlibraries/TestLib': No such file or directory

Code: Select all

$ ls /home/alexander/purebasic/purelibraries/userlibraries/
README testlib

I created a bug report to better track the bug.
