In both places it says: void close(); Effects: Calls rdbuf()->close() and, if that function returns false, ... However, basic_filebuf::close() (27.8.1.2) returns a pointer to the filebuf on success, null on failure, so I think it is meant to say "if that function returns a null pointer". Oddly, it is correct for basic_ofstream. Cheers, Chris --- [ comp.std.c++ is moderated. To submit articles, try just posting with ] [ your news-reader.
