/**
 * @class ACE_FILE_Connector
 *
 * @brief Defines an active connection factory for the ACE_FILE wrappers.
 *
 * Note that the O_APPEND flag is only partly supported on Win32. If
 * you specify O_APPEND, then the file pointer will be positioned at
 * the end of the file initially during open, but it is not
 * re-positioned at the end prior to each write, as specified by
 * POSIX.  This is generally good enough for typical situations, but
 * it is ``not quite right'' in its semantics.
