I'm using the above codes in a pthon-fuse's file class's read
function. The offset and length are 0 and 4096 respectively for my
test inputs. When I open a file and read the 4096 bytes from offset,
only a few lines are printed, not the whole file. Actually the file is
only a few bytes. But when I tried reading from the Interactive mode
of python it gave the whole file.
Is there any problem using read() method in fuse-python ?
Also statements like break and continue behaves weirdly in fuse
functions. Any help is appreciated....
