stat64 support on 32bit platform
I have to get the size and ownership of a file on a 32 bit solaris 10.stat function fails to provide the information as the file size is greater than 2GB(26GB).Is stat64 supported on 32 bit platforms.Can i use the function on all the platforms

Dont know about Solaris but try compiling with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS set to 64...its non-POSIX and may not work on all systems but it works on HPUX/AIX.

There are 64 bit functions carefully camoflaged under the lf64 banner. lf64 = large file 64 bit. It was a workaround, I gues, but it is still out there.

try man lf64 on your system - there is a struct stat64, for example. Also check out lfcompile, lfcompile64.

just put a `getconf...' amidst your `cc' flags...
- assuming the solaris version of your compiler is ok,
all you have to do is to add a `getconf' to your `cc' flags,
as in the example below:
Code:
cc `getconf LFS_CFLAGS` prog.c -o prog

good luck, and success !
