There is an article on MSDN about this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vccore98/HTML/_crt__setmode.asp Also, according to MSDN it seems like older version of filebuf implemented a method called setmode to change the mode of a file handle from binary to text and vice versa. To me, this all looks like an intrinsic feature of Windows' filehandles. You can also find a discussion about the problem on the pgsql-hackers-win32 mailinglist: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers-win32/2005-01/msg00226.php http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers-win32/2005-01/msg00227.php Regards - tom _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
