Patch to enable large file support

Only lightly tested but should work.

Comment 2 Karsten Hopp 2004-02-11 13:08:41 UTC
This has been discussed on the wget-devel mailinglist and the 
solution is not that simple. Just have a look at this code-snippet 
from wget: 
 
/* Sends the SIZE command to the server, and returns the value in 
'size'. 
 * If an error occurs, size is set to zero. */ 
uerr_t ftp_size(struct rbuf *rbuf, const char *file, long int *size) 
 
The whole code needs to be checked for those occurences of long int. 
 
Have a look at  
http://www.mail-archive.com/wget%40sunsite.dk/msg05239.html 
for a dicussion about large files in wget. 
 

Comment 3 Ulrich Drepper 2004-08-26 07:49:18 UTC
Consider adding a variant of the following patch:

http://software.lpetrov.net/wget-LFS/wget-LFS-20040630.patch

I don't know what this strange number_to_string_64 function is
supposed to do, should be correct to replace it with a call to snprintf.

Comment 4 Karsten Hopp 2004-08-26 08:55:26 UTC
I think this function is used to make it work on Windows, should be 
save both ways (to keep or replace it)
