Do duplicated descriptor files get closed after closing the original file descriptor?

When duplicating a file descriptor fd calling dup, and closing the original file descriptors.

Do all the duplicated file descriptors get closed also?

Solution

No the duplicates won't be closed. Otherwise the main use-case (duplicating into STDOUT_FILENO and STDIN_FILENO) would be pretty useless.
