stat() not working

[Mike Moreton]

From C++, when I call stat() on a file that doesn't exist, I get success (i.e. 0) rather than failure (i.e. -1).

The stat structure has st_mode set to zero, though I'm not sure if this is the value before the call not being changed, or if it is explicitly zeroed.

Anyone have any ideas?

Can you produce with a simple example?   if so perhaps open a bug.   This certainly doesn't happen in the general case so there must be some interesting thing you are doing.  e.g.

$ cat hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
  struct stat buf;
  printf("%d\n", stat("foo", &buf));
  return 0;
}

$ ./emcc  hello.c

$ node ./a.out.js
-1

cheers,

sam
