digitalmars.D.bugs - Bug in SliceStream.readBlock and writeBlock
- Nick (13/13) Jun 19 2005 The lines
The lines in SliceStream.readBlock are wrong, it should read "high - low - pos" in both lines. Since "high" is the end of the stream, and "low + pos" is the current position, then "high - (low + pos)" = "high - low - pos" is the number of bytes left. The same goes for SliceStream.writeBlock. As it stands, readBlock does not return 0 at the end of the slice, and writeBlock is allowed to write outside the slice, possibly overwriting other parts of the file. Nick
