Re: Achieving 64-bit integers on 32-bit platforms

Hello, on 06/30/2005 01:02 AM Dan Goodes said the following:

Hi Folks This 32-bit limitation is haunting me everywhere I turn. Is it possible with PHP (at compile-time if need be) to make it use large (64-bit) integers? I'm asking because I would like to perform operations on large files, and fillesize($filename) is returning an error, even when I use sprintf("%u", filesize($file)) as per the manual for filesize(). I get: Warning: filesize(): Stat failed for FC4-i386-DVD.iso (errno=75 - Value too large for defined data type) Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions? Thanks!

No, PHP is not capable of handing files larger than 2GB. You want to file a bug report because other program can handle large files in 32 bit OS. http://bugs.php.net/ -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ PHP Reviews - Reviews of PHP books and other products http://www.phpclasses.org/reviews/ Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.meta-language.net/metastorage.html
