Hello Stephen, Thanks a lot for applying the patch. ]It seems worth being explicit on all fopens re: b-vs-t. To that end, ]perhaps you could update the following too? ] ]> ./src/cbootimage.c:161: context->config_file = fopen(argv[optind++], "r"); ]> ./src/cbootimage.c:218: context.raw_file = fopen(context.output_image_filename, "w+"); ]> ./src/data_layout.c:1049: fp = fopen(context->input_image_filename, "r"); I thought about this too. Microsoft defines a 't' flag for text mode. So if fopen is called with flags "rt", the Microsoft libraries will understand it as read, text mode. But the 't' flag is not part of C99 or posix. C99 explicitly states "r" is "open text file for reading" and "rb" as "open binary file for reading". Though the 't' flag will probably be harmlessly ignored by non-Microsoft libraries, it is probably best to avoid it since it is Microsoft-specific. I think the only time the 't' flag is needed is if the Microsoft function _set_fmode has been used to change the default open mode from text to binary.
