As seen in another thread, I'm working on a Log class. I'm running into an issue that if I delete the file that's being written to, the Log class doesn't detect it and continues to 'think' it's writing even though the file is gone... (Note that this is on sun solaris in case it matters)

I've tried the following to try and detect this
(assuming my ofstream is named out)
!out.is_open()
!out.good()
out.fail()

None of them seem to detect this issue. (Nor changing the permissions to non-write while the file has already been opened by the app). Note that these functions DO catch a problem with opening the file, but not when it's already opened. Any advice?
