Subject: Re: IOS troubles with binary data on windows

The chunk size isn't the problem.

This code streams mp3 data to standard input for a pipe opened up an an 
executable called ezstream. Ezstream is a source for icecast server.


here is @ezstream:

@ezstream = IO.popen("C:\\Program 
Files\\ezstream-0.4.3-win32\\ezstream.exe -c \"C:\\Program 
Files\\ezstream-0.4.3-win32\\examples\\stdin.xml\"", "r+b")

This code works on Windows:

url = get_track_url

Net::HTTP.start(url.host, url.port) do |http|
        http.request_get(url.request_uri, {"User-Agent"=>"Mozilla/5.0 
(Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 
Firefox/2.0"}) do |res|
  raise "Bad response :#{res.code}: #{res.body}" unless res.code == 
"200"
      res.read_body do |segment|
    @ezstream.write segment
      end
  end
end


This code does not work on Windows:

f = File.open(get_file_path,'rb')
count = nil
until count == 0
   count = @ezstream.write(f.read(1024))
   #Invalid argument (Errno::EINVAL)
   # you get a broken pipe exception with sysread and syswrite too
end

Any ideas what is so different about chunking a file from disk versus 
chunking the file from an http network stream?
