Jim Meyering	f80cc28124	(stdopen): Revert to iterating over descriptors, but ... rather than using fstat, use fcntl with its F_GETFD flag, which is more efficient. Unlike the 2-syscall dup-close approach, this one doesn't apply any unnecessary pressure on the file descriptor pool -- thus there is one fewer way to fail.	2005-08-24 15:25:29 +00:00
Jim Meyering	cc6d255ed5	(stdopen): Return `bool' so caller can detect failure.	2005-08-19 17:18:04 +00:00

Jim Meyering	5754380c82	Rewritten by Paul Eggert. ... Now, the minimum overhead is just two system calls: dup and close.	2005-06-30 20:13:40 +00:00
