When fwrite is called on a closed file, it is supposed to return zero as
the number of bytes written.

I don't know where you got this idea.  After you call fclose, any other use
of that FILE * is undefined behavior.

Roland,

I had only concentrated on what specs say about fwrite, so I had missed this part about fclose. Sorry about that and thanks for pointing it out.

Sripathi.
