... just have to finish off the automatic roll-back process.
I'm having some issues with the standard library flush() function. It doesn't appear to be writing buffered output to disk in the Windows platform. More testing required.
Sadly, even if flush() does work, and the OS (any OS) tells the drive to write it to platters, it may not happen immediately. I don't know the work around for that except to know where it will be written on the platters, and do a low-level read to see if it is there. With even greater abstraction going on in the terabyte hdds, that may not work now either.
