#88986 - oh, I did just that
Responding to: ???'s previous message
However, if you write a '0' to a pin, it turns the open-drain driver ON and there is no way that anything external can ever force it to anything other than '0'

Once by accident, I managed to do what you say can't be done

I once accidentially connected a port with a '0' written to it to Vcc directly. This, of course, destroyed the open drain driver. After that I could read what was input to the port regardless of what was written to it. Pure luck that it did not totally destroy the chip.
