Hey there, is it possible to avoid closing the descriptor when the destructor of posix::{basic_,}stream_descriptor is called?
Unfortunately it isn't (stream_descriptor always owns the file descriptor).
I guess I have to roll my own service or something else but I don't know where to start, I'm also sending this to the boost mailing list.
I also would like to see a stream_descriptor which doesn't own the file descriptor as right now you can't share ownership with other objects (that's why I had to add a release() method to the handle class in the latest Boost.Process draft as ownership must be passed from handle to stream_descriptor).
