hi,

I am a new user of your g++ lib (2.2) and I think that something is wrong with the eof method of the fstream-class.

I attempt to use it in a search-program, which uses a ifstream object, but the returned value of eof() is always 0 even on an empty file.


Before writing this mail, I have made several tests
	- I've replaced the eof() method by the fail() method and the program ran
	  properly.
	- I've replaced the g++ library with the DEC c++ lib and the program ran
	  properly

So it seems that the bug comes from the eof() method. Is this a known bug? And if so, is there already a fix for it?

Thanks for your cooperation.

sincerly.    Samir Sow
