> ==> "/tmp/clisp-x-io-000592"this is note quite as easy to reproduce. sorry. the problem is that mkstemp() does not regard FIFOs (as created by mkfifo() or mknod()) as existing files. e.g. char s1[] = "/tmp/foo-XXXXXX"; char s2[] = "/tmp/foo-XXXXXX"; int fd = mkstemp(s1); close(fd); remove(s1); mkfifo(s1,0644); mkstemp(s2); strcmp(s1,s2) ===> 0 -- Sam Steingold (http://www.podval.org/~sds) running w2k <http://www.openvotingconsortium.org/> <http://www.camera.org> <http://www.jihadwatch.org/> <http://www.memri.org/> <http://pmw.org.il/> Do not worry about which side your bread is buttered on: you eat BOTH sides. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
