This is actually the reason exceptions were created - in some languages, such as C, there are no exceptions and so the result of each write needs to be manually checked for errors. If you're using a language with exceptions, your program will halt if it can't write. If you're using a language with checked exceptions, you'll have to write code to deal with any possible exception that can be thrown.
