I don't know that the file system APIs on OSX/iOS support files larger than LONG_LONG_MAX since they use a signed-64 bit value for offsets.
Assuming a file system supports it, pathconf(path, _PC_FILESIZEBITS) would be the correct way to determine the maximum file size in bits. _PC_FILESIZEBITS returns the minimum number of bits required to hold the file system's maximum file size as a signed integer. The smallest value returned is 32. - Jim > On Jan 24, 2015, at 2:40 PM, James Bucanek <subscri...@gloaming.com> wrote: > > Quick question, > > I know I can check the VOL_CAP_FMT_2TB_FILESIZE volume capabilities bit to > determine if files larger than 4GB are supported on a volume. > > Is there a reasonable test to determine if a filesystem supports files larger > than 2TB? > > James > > > _______________________________________________ > Do not post admin requests to the list.
