Not sure about what modifications are needed in this specific one but usually some patching is needed with libraries that work with files if we want to have them supporting streams, since by default they would just do open() and such. So in this case if we want them to support streams patching seems to be inevitable. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227
