Maximum File Size
Hi,
When i checked for the maximum file size on solaris 5.9
the max file size obtained was only 2147483647
and all the further writes to the file which had reached that max size is not added to that file.
even i had registered the signal SIGXFSZ, but the signal was not delivered to the program upon reaching the size
and to my astonishment,
once the file had reached the size 2147483647,
i tried with this simple redirection command
echo "abc" >> filename_max (it worked)
then found that file size was increased to 2147483651
then made a try to close the file pointer and reopen it if reached the maximum size, but ended in vain.
After reaching the maximum file size how is it able to further add contents to the file through the redirection operator and not through direct fprintf operation as such ?
could somebody please throw light upon this?
I really could not proceed.
Thanks,
Mad.

curlmopt_maxconnects
CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS(3) curl_multi_setopt options CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS(3)
NAME
CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS - set size of connection cache
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS, long max);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long indicating the max. The set number will be used as the maximum amount of simultaneously open connections that libcurl may keep
in its connection cache after completed use. By default libcurl will enlarge the size for each added easy handle to make it fit 4 times the
number of added easy handles.
By setting this option, you can prevent the cache size from growing beyond the limit set by you.
When the cache is full, curl closes the oldest one in the cache to prevent the number of open connections from increasing.
This option is for the multi handle's use only, when using the easy interface you should instead use the CURLOPT_MAXCONNECTS(3) option.
See CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS(3) for limiting the number of active connections.
DEFAULT
See DESCRIPTION
PROTOCOLS
All
EXAMPLE
TODO
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.16.3
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLM_OK if the option is supported, and CURLM_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
