Hello All,
A setattrlist() call on a FIFO file, socket and
character/block device file fails with errno=0 (unknown error)?
Why does setattrlist() not work with these files?Also why does it not
return a proper errno?
I am trying to set the following attributes:
BSD flags
creation time
text encoding hint
backup time
&
finder flags
The same works with all other files.
Another interesting thing here is that getattrlist() works fine with
these file types
Thanks
