Hi !

Have someone recognized a problem
with files in input and output mode
when reading to the end of the file
and then want to write something to
the file ?

Try the following (command line) with the
Example (see end of posting) compiled to a.out :

$ echo test >dingsda
$ a.out
$ wc -l dingsda
$ cat dingsda

ok. dingsda got 40 lines with the same string
in it ("1234567890_12\n").
But then try this.

$ rm dingsda
$ a.out
$ wc -l dingsda
$ cat dingsda

you will get _one line_ with the above string
in it !?!?

When shortening the above string with one
character to "1234567890_1\n" both command
line examples above will work like expected 
(40 lines are generated) !


Someone ever hit this bug ?
Maybe there is a patch ?
Please help !

Thanx, mario



a.out source :
--------------

#include <iostream.h>

main()

{ fstream mylog;
  char i[1024];

  mylog.open("dingsda", ios::in | ios::out);

  // Reading
  mylog >> i;

  // Writing
  // !!!!! Take care about the length of the string !!!!!!
  for (int j=0; j<40; j++)
    mylog << "1234567890_12\n;

  return 0;
}
