I would have been happier if CamTu had started a new thread as he moved on to a new topic. Worse, the switch to the ftp question was really a crosspost of this
thread and as such was a violation of rule 4. I decided to let it slide. Maybe I shouldn't have. It gets tedious playing policeman.
But in general piggy-backing questions is not against the rules and to the original poster it all may be part of the same project. I'm not sure that such a rule would be a great idea. Neo would need to rule on that.
In the meantime, don't feel that you need to stay trapped in a thread. It took me a while to realize that sometimes I need to bail out of a thread. I don't post a final goodbye or anything. I just move on.

Readers: Their only job is to read files. They just read data from the files and put them into a buffer. They are obviously I/O intensive.

Dear admins,
it seems that some threads or even users have recently (~ 2 days or so) disappeared. Examples: giuliangiuseppe and greycells. The latter asked me for the solution I provided earlier this week.
What happened? Can you help?

thread is lost when the thread terminates.
Calling this function multiple times for the same thread results in undefined behavior.

Upon successful completion, returns zero. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error (the variable is not set).
