I'm not sure I need to show internal code that has nothing to do with it. Basically I think the issue comes from the maximum number of items into a byte array. Say an example program already contains this code:
That would mean that the maximum number of elements is the maximum value an integer can achieve, which in Java is 2147483647, so make that bytes. That implies the maximum length of piece to extract can be up to 2 GB approximately. What happens if I want to extract a piece of about 7 GB? Even in the 2GB case, I have no idea if the content is stored into ram memory, which will cause problems on low specs computers.

elf_rand
ELF_RAND(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ELF_RAND(3)NAME
elf_rand -- provide sequential access to the next archive member
LIBRARY
ELF Access Library (libelf, -lelf)
SYNOPSIS
#include <libelf.h>
off_t
elf_rand(Elf *archive, off_t offset);
DESCRIPTION
The elf_rand() function causes the ELF descriptor archive to be adjusted so that the next call to elf_begin(3) will provide access to the ar-
chive member at byte offset offset in the archive. Argument offset is the byte offset from the start of the archive to the beginning of the
archive header for the desired member.
Archive member offsets may be retrieved using the elf_getarsym(3) function.
RETURN VALUES
Function elf_rand() returns offset if successful or zero in case of an error.
EXAMPLES
To process all the members of an archive use:
off_t off;
Elf *archive, *e;
...
cmd = ELF_C_READ;
archive = elf_begin(fd, cmd, NULL);
while ((e = elf_begin(fd, cmd, archive)) != (Elf *) 0)
{
... process `e' here ...
elf_end(e);
off = ...new value...;
if (elf_rand(archive, off) != off) {
... process error ...
}
}
elf_end(archive);
To rewind an archive, use:
Elf *archive;
...
if (elf_rand(archive, SARMAG) != SARMAG) {
... error ...
}
ERRORS
Function elf_rand() may fail with the following errors:
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] Argument archive was null.
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] Argument archive was not a descriptor for an ar(1) archive.
[ELF_E_ARCHIVE] Argument offset did not correspond to the start of an archive member header.
