[Boost-users] Re: [Filesystem] request for exists() fix

(Sorry for top-posting - my newsreader made me do it!) Yes, that's a bug. Fixed in CVS. Thanks! The next version will change the behavior of exists() somewhat. It should be less prone to misclassification. By the way, I almost missed this message because it was posted as a reply rather than a new message. That caused my newsreader to thread it way down in the middle of another discussion. The only reason I saw it was because I was following that thread. --Beman wrote in message news:OFB798FEE8.2997AC5C-ON86256FF8.006F3653-86256FF8.006F9EB5@AUTOZONE.COM... (Using Boost 1.33 on VC7.1 and Win XP Pro SP2) I know there are talks about possible changes to the filesystem library, but in the meantime, I have found that ERROR_NOT_READY happens if there's no CD in the CD-ROM drive, but fs::exists(path) returns "true" for files on that drive. My expectation was it would return "false"....
