Hi, I am aware this isn't a programming mailing list, but since I've got such wonderful responses from users in this ML, I thought I'd go ahead with my post.
My problem is that I haven't figured out how I must fsync an output stream (in C++) even after reading the contents of this link: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2004-02/msg00285.html How must I modify this method (this method doesn't work; it prints the error message and exits!) ? void logRecovery::syncToDisk(fstream& f) { unix_filebuf_t* buf; buf = dynamic_cast<unix_filebuf_t*>(f.rdbuf()); if (buf == NULL) { cerr << "Fatal: Don't know fd of stream" << endl; exit(-1); } fsync(buf->fd()); } I am using GCC 3.3.4. Thanks, Hareesh -- [email protected] mailing list
