I have got the opinion that such destruction or resource release failures should not be ignored. Will it make sense to adjust the reactions by distinguishing the error indication for file descriptors that became invalid and interruption of file operations? http://opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/close.html http://opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/fclose.html
These worries are theoretical. If you find out that some resource (you are relying upon) abruptly becomes invalid that would mean a bug in the underlying OS. In any case what would handling such a case buy us? Absolutely nothing.
