Paid on delivery
We have previously had an undelete application of ours built from GNU source code. This application used large portions of C++ undelete code, from Anton Altaparmakov and Richard Russon. All of this code was derived from public sources back in 2002. The NTFS code can be found at <[login to view URL]> We are looking for an *excellent* C++ programmer to find some of the original code and to essentially put together an UNDELETE APPLICATION that is capable of scanning disk drives and undeleting files. It should support FAT, FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS (incl. compressed/encrypted drives preferably). Basically just regular HOME USER drives... There is FULL GNU *PUBLIC DOMAIN* source code already available that does this. Your job is to simply bring this together and create a very basic user interface. We'll do the rest. TOO MANY CODERS HAVE FAILED AT THIS TASK. IF YOU ARE CHOSEN, AND DELIVER, YOU WILL RECEIVE A 10+++++ RATING PLUS AN **EXTREMELY** GENEROUS BONUS. Once again, the requirement: create an undelete program, working with the various Windows file systems, from GNU source where applicable. This bid MAY require you to research the GNU authors and their code first. PLEASE DO THIS. It will pay off in the long run! (Note: We'll give you the original app source after acceptance as a good start) ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform Win32
