AH, ok, well, ELF is a file format for executable files (e.g. programs), specifically executable files that will be run on a machine which provides linking to other files. ELF is a file format, but it's still just a file, like a json file vs a py file. A text file isn't an ELF, and a python file is...

Zero-byte files don't appear to use any disk space, but they'll use up inodes. Not all versions of MicroPython return a useful inode count. Non-empty files take up a number of blocks on the FS. Thanks for your answer, I found out that functions getting size of a file will only return the size of it...

can you post the (ideally simplified) file, and the file size you see on your computer and the file size reported by micropython? I expect zero for an empty file, i see that on *nix systems and micropython. Filename and other filesystem data is on the filesystem, not the file itself. Are you only s...

Hello, I'd like to retrieve the actual size of a file on my ESP32 board. I've read a lot of topics talking about os.stat(filepath).st_size and os.statvfs(filepath) But both methods return 0 for an empty file even though it shouldn't : for instance, ELF header (and filename) is not taken in account f...

Hello ! I'd like to know if it is possible to access ESP32's content in access point (AP_IF) mode, using an hostname instead of its IP. Currently I'm only able to do it in station mode (STA_IF), by setting its hostname using wlan.config(dhcp_hostname='hostname') but it doesn't work using AP_IF mode....
