Hello,
I am using boost version 1.42 and the below code is tested on Windows Xp SP3 and Suse 11.2
The below code creates new file when opened using fstream object, but fails to create when opened using wftream object. This behavior is consistent across platforms (Windows and Linux). Also the error code which I get after fileHandleW.open call is,
1. ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND for std::ios_base::out 2. ERROR_NEGATIVE_SEEK for std::ios_base::app
In case of append mode, the file gets created. But still I get the above mentioned error code.
#include "boost/filesystem/fstream.hpp"
int main() { boost::filesystem::path pA("C:\\testA.txt"); boost::filesystem::wpath pW(L"C:\\testW.txt"); boost::filesystem::fstream fileHandleA; boost::filesystem::wfstream fileHandleW; fileHandleA.open(pA, std::ios_base::out); fileHandleW.open(pW, std::ios_base::out); return 0; }
I didn't have a copy of 1.42 handy, so tested against the current trunk, using VC++ 9. Your program worked fine, and the two files were created. Are you still having problems? Perhaps upgrading to 1.43 would help. --Beman
