This file is part of bzip2/libbzip2, a program and library for
|

lossless, block-sorting data compression.

bzip2/libbzip2 version 1.0.8 of 13 July 2019

------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
bzip2 should compile without problems on the vast majority of
|
||||
platforms. Using the supplied Makefile, I've built and tested it
|
||||
myself for x86-linux and amd64-linux. With makefile.msc, Visual C++
|
||||
6.0 and nmake, you can build a native Win32 version too. Large file
|
||||
support seems to work correctly on at least on amd64-linux.
|
||||
|
||||
When I say "large file" I mean a file of size 2,147,483,648 (2^31)
|
||||
bytes or above. Many older OSs can't handle files above this size,
|
||||
but many newer ones can. Large files are pretty huge -- most files
|
||||
you'll encounter are not Large Files.
|
||||
|
||||
Early versions of bzip2 (0.1, 0.9.0, 0.9.5) compiled on a wide variety
|
||||
of platforms without difficulty, and I hope this version will continue
|
||||
in that tradition. However, in order to support large files, I've had
|
||||
to include the define -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 in the Makefile. This
|
||||
can cause problems.
|
||||
|
||||
The technique of adding -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to get large file
|
||||
support is, as far as I know, the Recommended Way to get correct large
|
||||
file support. For more details, see the Large File Support
|
||||
Specification, published by the Large File Summit, at
|
||||
|
||||
http://ftp.sas.com/standards/large.file
|
||||
|
||||
As a general comment, if you get compilation errors which you think
|
||||
are related to large file support, try removing the above define from
|
||||
the Makefile, ie, delete the line
|
||||
|
||||
BIGFILES=-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
|
||||
|
||||
from the Makefile, and do 'make clean ; make'. This will give you a
|
||||
version of bzip2 without large file support, which, for most
|
||||
applications, is probably not a problem.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, try some of the platform-specific hints listed below.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the spewG.c program to generate huge files to test bzip2's
|
||||
large file support, if you are feeling paranoid. Be aware though that
|
||||
any compilation problems which affect bzip2 will also affect spewG.c,
|
||||
alas.
|
||||
|
||||
AIX: I have reports that for large file support, you need to specify
|
||||
-D_LARGE_FILES rather than -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. I have not tested
|
||||
this myself.
