2 Gb File Size Limit ?

[Mike Peterson Charles]

FAT32 on Windows XP does support up to 4 GB per file.

Does anyone have C/C++ reference on how to create a greater then 2 GB File
on Linux?

Well, this thread originated on a question about large files.  Other
filesystems like ext2/3, Reiser, JFS, etc, all support larger file sizes.
And I was correcting a statement that the maximum size of a file on FAT32
was 2GB.

I've had 76gig files under these other filesystems, as well as under 32 bit
Windows XP on NTFS.

oh you mean any file whose size is 4GB+ ?? NO, certainly not. that is not
directly possible on a 32 bit system.
