It supports shared file opens as well... Because the failure is nothing to do with the "sharing" bit, it is something wrong with PerlIO. Win32API::File obviously uses PerlIO differently and doesn't trip over the problem. The attached Foo module is a reproduction of the problem that I'm having but now using the plain fopen() function instead of Microsoft's fsopen() function. Of course, that makes it a completely useless module, but it serves to illustrate the problem. Using perl-5.8.8 (and bleadperl prior to #29060) the test script in this Foo module outputs: OK Using bleadperl from #29074 onwards it now croaks with the output: refcnt_dec: fd 3: 0 <= 0 refcnt_dec: fd 3: 0 <= 0 refcnt_dec: fd 3: 0 <= 0 -- ------------------------------------------------ Radan Computational Ltd.
