Hi there,

I've been playing about with the example YouTube file system (
http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/wiki/DEVELOPER_OBJC_HOWTO ) in order
to get two copies of it mounted within the same application.

Unfortunately, this does not seem to work. Only one of the file
systems are actually mounted, with the failed one ending up as an
empty folder, e.g. /Volumes/ytfs2

Granted, this is probably a silly idea to start off with. But still, i
wonder. Is this intended behaviour?

Any input would be appreciated.

Regards,

The current release of MacFUSE indeed doesn't explicitly support
multiple mounts from the same process. If you use the lower-level C
library, you could get multiple mounts to work for some contrived
cases, but even that support is incomplete and fraught with caveats.

The next release of MacFUSE solves all of this: it supports multiple
mounts as a proper feature, both within the C library and within
MacFUSE.framework.

If you want to give this a shot, the code is already checked in (but
only for Leopard so far; I'll get the Tiger "backport" in some time
soon.)
