problem in file reading and writing in c

[Omar_Mokhtar]

Hello Everybody,

After writing some data to a file , then closing the file using fclose function .. then immediately passing the file as an argument to a shell script command or opening the file for immediately reading .. Will the data be found correctly or the Operating System will still being writing the file so that if i read something before it finishes it may be some garbage ??

Thanks in advance,

The data, even if not written completely to disc, will be in the system cache, so opening the file with another application or shell script should work just fine.
