I am working on a Foundation tool which calls fopen() from a class method. It runs correctly under the debugger.

Sounds like your code depends in some way on the current working directory. Also, why are you using fopen() instead of - dataWithContentsOfURL: or -stringWithContentsOfURL:?

Thanks for your response.

The path to fopen is absolute, and I am opening it for writing. I don't see how this can be affected by the working directory.

I am using fprintf instead of accumulating a string and writing it all at once because hundreds of writers are distributed throughout the program tree, and each is asked to write thousands of times. It seemed that having them write through a shared file stream would be quicker than mutating a string a hundreds of thousands of times.
