New Post: Error handling with interop streams

Write errors should result in some derived typed from std::exception being thrown. If you're not receiving an error, this sounds like a bug. Also, the size_t issue on 32-bit machines is a definite problem.

I'm opening two issues to track these:

• size_t return type issue: https://casablanca.codeplex.com/workitem/243
• std::exception not thrown upon write error with std::ofstream backend: https://casablanca.codeplex.com/workitem/244
  

If you have a short program that can reproduce the no-throw effects, it would greatly help us if you could post it to the second workitem above.

Sincerely,
