I don't see how dup() would help you. Remember, you could get back fd 123 even if fd 12345 was the last one allocated and is still in use. You get the lowest free fd. You can do readdir() on /proc/self/fd to list them, being careful to not close the fd used for reading the directory until you have read the whole directory. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
