Although given two file descriptors when I write some content it will be on the same file right? Shouldn't the same file analogy apply? I thought about using file descriptors to separate streams, but have to take care of ensuring completion of processing the buffer when closed. This I feel should be done if the descriptor gets reused. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
