RE: accessing files larger than 2GB

[Mulley, Nikhil]

I guess it is more of to do with the operating system than the
application level. A search on 'file size limit linux' might help you.

Regards.

Subject: accessing files larger than 2GB

Hello,
I have problems accessing files larger than 2GB with octave version  
2.1.71 under linux. Can there be something obviously wrong with our  
installation or is this a known issue?
Thanks,
Peter

Example:

 > ls -l Bufo_tschudi_10003.vol
-rw-r--r--    1 boller   sid19    4289040000 2006-08-05 01:31  
Bufo_tschudi_10003.vol
 > ls('Bufo_tschudi_10003.vol')
Bufo_tschudi_10003.vol
 > exist('Bufo_tschudi_10003.vol')
ans = 0
 > glob('Bufo_tschudi_10003.vol')
ans = {}

fopen works:
 > fid=fopen('Bufo_tschudi_10003.vol')
fid =
{
   id = 4
   name = Bufo_tschudi_10003.vol
   mode = rb
   arch = ieee_little_endian
   status = open
}

fread works

fseek does not work
