Right. I'm talking about the case where the developer knows he wants case sensitivity.
And can therefore call a different library function, or pass an optional flag argument.
In that case, you have to know whether or not the file system is case sensitive to know whether or not "file.c" would get opened if the application tried to open "file.C".
uhm ... Why? If it would, there really isn't any way to tell what the "real" name is ... or do you just mean that it should cease to be case-sensitive in exactly those cases where file.c is file.C, as a way of breaking less than it otherwise would? -jJ
