Ogre use "while(!stream->eof())" to check end of file for serializer.
In "FileStreamDataStream::eof()", it use "return mInStream->eof()". It's not correct!

I think "return mInStream->peek() == std::istream::traits_type::eof();" to check EOF is better.
What's your advice?

It's only incorrect if you try to use what came from the read operation that set the eof bit (eg. you read() and you don't call gcount() and you just blindly use the buffer you read into)
