Description Alexia Death 2006-11-05 18:43:30 UTC 
Version:           0.9.0-beta1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

If drive gets full during image copy operation in camera gui no warning is issued and empty files are created for files that did not have room.

This is a bug because I erased the card aftrwards, expecting a complete copy and later looking at the pictures realized that some of the good images I had shoot later were only epty files on my full photo partition... I lost the images.

This file must be fixed before 0.9.0-final release.

Can you reproduce this problem on your computer ?

SVN commit 619537 by mwiesweg:

When partition is full, QIODevice::writeBlock will not return -1 as error,
but 0 for zero bytes written.
