The system doesn't know anything about the actual implementation. Perhaps some of the resources needed for the cookie functions is already gone. It's not safe to try to close the FILE. Aside, there might be code out there which depends on the current behavior. It'd different if from day one this requirement would have existed. And whatever ISO C says doesn't apply here because cookie streams are not in ISO C. -- What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution| |WONTFIX http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10325 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
