Hi Hugh I have re-compiled diff program with large file support and it is also 64-bit compilation. Here one more thing diff command executed successfully when I ran it manually on the same set of files which were used for ci command.
Note: These files are binary in nature, not the text files. Thanks for your help! --Sudhakar -----Original Message----- From: Hugh Sasse [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, January 13, 2011 1:06 PM To: Peram, Sudhakara Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: ci failed for large files (>2GB) - diff: memory exhausted Just wondering if you compiled the diff program with large file support?
