fstat

[Martijn]

Hi,

I have an open file handle from which I would like to retrieve the file
descriptor for use with fstat. Is this possible or should I redesign my
algorithm a bit (I have the feeling I am overlooking something trivial
here)?

Thanks,

Martijn

The ISO C standard does not define file descriptors or fstat. Please ask
in comp.unix.programmer.
