See > http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/vclib/html/_crt__lseek.2c_._lseeki64.asp Is there any risk that the mingw libraries would fail when manipulating a file whose current offset exceeds 32 bits? I'm wondering if we'd have to roll our own stdio in toto, not just fseeko/ftello :-( regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
