| Summary | 0000122: ESPIPE inconsistencies | ||||
| Description | There are some inconsistencies between the ESPIPE errors for the various stream I/O seek functions. For ftell() there is a "shall fail" ESPIPE for pipes and FIFOs, and a "may fail" ESPIPE for sockets. For ftello() there is a "shall fail" ESPIPE for pipes and FIFOs, and no ESPIPE for sockets. For fgetpos() there is a "may fail" ESPIPE for all three file types. For fseek() and fseeko() there is a "shall fail" ESPIPE for pipes and FIFOs, and no ESPIPE for sockets. For fsetpos() there is a "shall fail" ESPIPE for all three file types. Presumably where an ESPIPE for sockets is omitted this is simply an oversight. For ftell() I can see no reason for the ESPIPE requirements to be different for sockets than for pipes and FIFOs. Likewise the requirements for fgetpos() should be the same as for ftell() and ftello(). A related problem is that EBADF is "may fail" for fgetpos() but "shall fail" for all the other functions. | ||||
| Desired Action | On line 32054 change "pipe or FIFO" to "pipe, FIFO, or socket". Delete lines 32055 and 32056 (ftell "may fail" text and ESPIPE). On the fgetpos() page delete line 28249 ("may fail" text) and move EBADF to the beginning of the errors list. On the fseek() page at line 31450 change "pipe or FIFO" to "pipe, FIFO, or socket". | ||||
