Hi.  I rely quite heavily on Apple Lossless audio.  I would like to crash
proof recording to Apple Lossless.  MPEG-4, CAF, and QuickTime Movie all
require that the file is closed properly in order to open them.

Just curious: Where did you get that info from?

We're accessing files that are open for writing from a separate
ExtAudioFile instance (for reading) without problems in one of our
apps. You might need to call AudioFileOptimize() to flush data to the
file before you can read them but other than that we've not had any
problems with it...

My concern is recovering from a crash.  In all of the mentioned formats if the app crashes before the file is closed the packet table is never written to the file.  It isn't possible to flush data to the file if the app has crashed.
