[Pfspd-users@sf.net] File size platform dependency resolved

[Bram R. <bra...@ph...>]

Hi all,

With help from Erwin de Kock, we resolved the file size issue in the 
cpfspd
development repository.

From the readme file:
- Files written on the windows (win32 or cygwin) platforms
  contained unused space at the end due to the unbuffered
  file I/O. As a consequence, the file length depended on
  the platform. This is no longer the case. On win32/cygwin,
  the file is truncated to the proper length.

For a clean impelementation , I had to dig quite deep into cpfspd_low
to keep track of actual data written to the file and use this information
when the file is actually closed.

A new test on file size is added.

Developers, please update your sandboxes.

Regards, Bram.
