Hello,
The knowledge base is said that, the theoretical library size can be larger than 4GB on 64-bit environment.
The PROLIB utility and the AVM use 64-bit offsets when accessing procedure library files, so in theory they can be very large. 64-bit addressing allows creation of files larger than 4GB.
But one of my clients still has limitations (OE 10.2B08, Linux 64-bit).
Cannot add rsrvrep.r to r-code library. Library offset exceeds 4 gigabytes.
-rw-rw-r--. 1 root root 4.1G Oct 29 18:21 test.pl
I would like to ask, what else affects on the maximum size of the library in 64-bit environment?
Regards,
Valeriy
Hi,
What the article indicated was theoretically true in the context it was written, however at that time the article author was unaware that there were hard-coded restrictions to the file size prior to 11.0. These restrictions were removed in 11.0.
I will change the knowledgebase article to omit releases prior to 11.0.
Cheers,
Ken Mc

Hi Ken,
Thank you!

I almost hate to ask... but how in the world did they end up with a 4 GB procedure library file?
