SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       New  API's  to support large files in 32-bit applications.  These API interfaces are not a part of the POSIX standard and may be removed in
       the future.

APPLICATION USAGE

       The standard POSIX interfaces may be used by 32-bit applications to create and access large files if compiled with set to 64.

       The interfaces described here are alternatives to the standard ones, and are enabled by defining

       For 64-bit applications, access to large files is automatic, as long as the underlying file system is enabled for large files.  The  inter-
       faces  on  this	man  page  are	available to 64-bit applications, for convenience in porting, but provide no additional capabilities.  The
       exception is which is not visible to 64-bit applications.
