I need some advice on handling Windows 32 bit. apr_int64_t for size is too big,
and tests are failing.
Technically apr_ssize_t is the right size, but the definition of ssize_t is
[-1, SSIZE_MAX]. I need a signed very big number. Given we define apr_ssize_t,
is it ok to use apr_ssize_t anyway?
This is purely an internal detail, outside you just see apr_size_t only
(limited to half the size).
Regards,
Graham
