Summary0000092: No large file support when compiled with default configuration on Linux
DescriptionOn Linux, simulations fail when the vector file's size reaches 2GB.

This can be fixed by adding -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to configure.user. This should probably be the default.

See http://groups.google.com/group/omnetpp/browse_thread/thread/f5e394fbd7a9a60f/fe18c54d447cebfa?show_docid=fe18c54d447cebfa [^]

Actually, large file support should be the default (out of the box) setting for OMNeT++ on all platforms.

Large files are not supported by default on Linux (gcc)/mingw.

Reopened because issue is still present in 4.1. Seems like the bug was closed without testing it.

I think the ide should also be tested before marking this as fixed, as in my experience it cannot open elog files larger than 2GB.

Added the -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 macros to CFLAGS (for Linux/32-bit) to turn on the LFS support.

Tested LFS also on
- Mac OS 10.5 (passed) lfs seems to be default even on 32bit progs,
- Windows XP (with the bundled MINGW)) - also supports LFS
- and using the patch, Linux32 bit is also working.

ohh. Mingw build still not supported large files as of omnet 4.2.
With 4.2.1 mingw builds (including the uilib) should support large files. (added ftell64, fseek64 etc. macros for mingw in platmisc.h)
