this is defined on a lot of archs in include/sys/fnctl.h fcntl.h:#define O_SYNC 0x10 /* synchronized file update option */ is there a similar op for freebsd? and if so, why is it different than everyone else? afaik it implies fsync() on every write(). when i come across and app that uses it i usually just #define it to zero and things work, although it might cause a loss of robustness of certain apps. Can someone commit this as a synonym to what we use? thanks, Alfred Perlstein - Programmer, HotJobs Inc. - www.hotjobs.com -- There are operating systems, and then there's FreeBSD. -- http://www.freebsd.org/ 3.0-current To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
