The design of this library reminds me of OOP anti-pattern "Public Morozov" (in the name of popular Soviet myth about 13-year old boy Pavlik Morozov, who denounced his father to authorities), which exposes internal state of an object and private methods via public delegates.

Re: Dokany – User mode file system library for windows with FUSE Wrapper
#22This is a fantastic project. FWIW, Paragon's extfs for Windows uses either Dokany or the original Dokan, so at least one company thought this was good enough to use in production. I'll just point out for anyone interested in trying this, expect BSODs: https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany/issues/344 . I'm also not sure how the Win10 Anniversary driver signing changes have affected the project - they're relying on a com…
I am the author of WinFsp. Thanks for mentioning it.
WinFsp properly supports the filter manager, which means that AV filters should work without problems.

#23I've been using an sshfs implementation for Windows which is based on this: https://github.com/Foreveryone-cz/win-sshfs It works moderately well. It's incredibly convenient to have sshfs on Windows.
Consider my SSHFS-Win port which allows you to map a new network drive from Explorer using syntax like: \\sshfs\username@server

Not as of yet. But you can use the Windows Credential Manager to store your passwords.

Is it just not advertising to your own product ?

Like dokan before it was tested :wink:

#29It's fantastic that this is being worked on again, I last looked at Dokan a few years ago and was disappointed, it seemed unmaintained.

#30Why and when I need create a new file system on Windows other than FAT or NTFS? This problem seems interesting.
It's not about creating new filesystems, but using filesystem ui to browse any filesystem like hierarchy. For example using a potential implementation you as a user could be browsing S3, remote NFS, or gmail account where labels would be represented as folders and emails as text files.
> gmail account where labels would be represented as folders and emails as text files.
Okay, this sounds incredible - is this an actual doable thing here?
