Re: [OMPI users] File seeking with shared filepointer issues

Ah, this clears things up a bit. I still feel that using shared fileseeks is a dangerous practice however, so I will steer clear of them for now. I did this small experiment on a Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard 10.6.7, so the file system is HFS+. I just did the file size example since it was simple,
