[Pvfs-developers] Pvfs_write

[Combe Jonathan - jcombe]

The C Api for PVFS has this method.

int pvfs_write(int fd, char *buf, size_t count);

Is there a particular reason that the buffer (char *buf) is not a const
char*?

This prevents the use of C++ strings as when you call c_str() it returns
a const char* and not a char*.

Thanks.
Jon.
