Hi,
I'm currently working on some bugs in the PIO_seek code, and i find the current return-code of Seek impractical: it just returns 0 on success and -1 on error. I found myself writing code like
PIO_seek_down(...); pos = PIO_tell_down(...);
but in the layer implementations typically is this code:
return pos == -1 ? -1 : 0;
So i think it would be better to let PIO_seek return the current offset. So I purpose a change of the prototype of PIO_seek to
That sounds proper as that is the traditional semantic for seek/lseek on most systems. I'm not sure why I wrote it otherwise, probably just in haste.
