That's not a problem. That's exactly as it should be. LONG_LONG_OFF_T is specifically for the case where off_t and long have different sizes. > My config.log looks like this: > > configure:11865: checking for off_t > configure:11895: gcc -c -O2 -fno-strength-reduce -Wall -DMACOS_X_UNIX > -no-cpp-precomp conftest.c >&5 > configure:11901: $? = 0 > configure:11916: result: yes > > It seems that it never even tries to figure out the proper size. That's the only occurence of off_t? The size checking is performed much later than checking for the existence of off_t. >> This results in the following src/auto/config.h lines 37-51: >>> >>> /* Defined to the size of a long */ >>> #define SIZEOF_LONG 4 >>> >>> /* Defined to the size of off_t */ >>> #define SIZEOF_OFF_T 8 > > These two are always undefined for me. > > To conclude; there are two problems: > > (1) On Mac OS X 10.6 configure fails to check the size of "long" and > "off_t" (I'm guessing I'm not the only person having this problem, but > I don't know.) It sounds like your configure script is not current. Either that or you're checking src/auto/config.h before the configure script has been run. src/auto/config.h is updated by the results of the configure script, so make sure you're checking it at the end of a build. > (2) On Mac OS X 10.6 sizeof(long) == sizeof(off_t) so the test in > vim.h would never do anything even if (1) was ok.

The sole purpose of LONG_LONG_OFF_T is for systems where sizeof(long) != sizeof(off_t), since on those systems we can't simply print off_t as a long. Since you've shown that the sizes are the same on your system, and forcing use of "%lld" makes your compiler shut up, it looks like a bug in your compiler. -- James GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 2003-09-02 James Vega <james...@jamessan.com> -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
