Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users What is the cause of file truncation? Post 85326 by Perderabo on Tuesday 4th of October 2005 03:08:30 PM

blowtorch, your problem is due to buffering as you suspect. You could use setvbuf() to unbuffer. Or you could check the return code from fclose() which will detect the problem. Ideally, you check the return code from close() as well... although no one ever does. With an NFS mounted filesystem, close() could be the syscall that detects a full filesystem.
