- Spacen Jasset (4/37) Oct 24 2008 I've raised a bug for the wrong share mode.
I am trying to create a new file for writing, as a log file, like this: new File("gltest.log", FileMode.OutNew); and find that with any of the "write" options the file appears to be opened for exclusive access on windows, so another process cannot then read from the same file. Is there a way around this? Other than continually opening and closing the log file, which also won't work because then the log file can't be written to if it's being read from. 14:25:35 gltest.exe:5852 OPEN J:\bzr\gltest\trunk\gltest.log SUCCESS Options: OpenIf Access: 00120196 I have also seen that readline like activity: foreach (char[] line; input) { will make system calls for one byte at a time? Is there no buffering in the phobos lib? 14:25:35 gltest.exe:5852 OPEN J:\bzr\gltest\trunk\gltest.cfg SUCCESS Options: Open Access: Read 14:25:35 gltest.exe:5852 QUERY INFORMATION J:\bzr\gltest\trunk\gltest.cfg SUCCESS Length: 381 14:25:35 gltest.exe:5852 READ J:\bzr\gltest\trunk\gltest.cfg SUCCESS Offset: 0 Length: 1 14:25:35 gltest.exe:5852 READ J:\bzr\gltest\trunk\gltest.cfg SUCCESS Offset: 1 Length: 1 14:25:35 gltest.exe:5852 READ J:\bzr\gltest\trunk\gltest.cfg SUCCESS Offset: 2 Length: 1 14:25:35 gltest.exe:5852 READ J:\bzr\gltest\trunk\gltest.cfg SUCCESS Offset: 3 Length: 1

The workaround is to say: FileMode.OutNew | FileMode.In even if you don't want to read from the file.
