https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14110 Issue ID: 14110 Summary: std.file.read cannot read files open for writing Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: All OS: Windows Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P1 Component: Phobos Assignee: nobody puremagic.com Reporter: thecybershadow gmail.com On Windows, std.file.read will fail to read files that are already open for writing (usually by another process). This is an issue when trying e.g. to read a log file that is still being written. Programs such as Notepad, Internet Explorer, Firefox all succeed in opening the file, so D's behavior is unusual. --
