Try the "comp.lang.c.moderated" group for C and C library questions.
You probably meant:
if( fp != NULL )
fclose( fp );
That is, "!= NULL" rather than "== NULL".

Hi,
I'm trying to close a file using fclose, but the following program seg-faults:
#include
int main(void)
{
FILE* fp = fopen("unfounded.txt", "r");
if(fp == NULL)
fclose(fp);
return 0;
}
The file I'm trying to open doesn't exist in the directory, so fp is
indeed NULL.
