Please replace closedir.c in my recent posting of the public-domain
directory access routine sources with the following:
/*
closedir -- close a directory stream
last edit: 11-Nov-1988 D A Gwyn
*/
#include <sys/errno.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <dirent.h>
typedef char *pointer; /* (void *) if you have it */
extern void free();
extern int close();
extern int errno;
#ifndef NULL
#define NULL 0
#endif
int
closedir( dirp )
register DIR *dirp; /* stream from opendir() */
{
register int fd;
if ( dirp == NULL || dirp->dd_buf == NULL )
{
errno = EFAULT;
return -1; /* invalid pointer */
}
fd = dirp->dd_fd; /* bug fix thanks to R. Salz */
free( (pointer)dirp->dd_buf );
free( (pointer)dirp );
return close( fd );
}
