[Msys2-users] stat.h and large file sizes?

[Greg J. <gv...@gm...>]

I'm working on a routine that returns file sizes and find that the 32-bit
builds don't accomodate a larger byte-count typical of the large movie
files or backup files found these days.  I'm testing cygwin64 (native
cygwin build) and mingw/msys 32-bit build:64-bit version does ok: .
  I presume when I go mingw64 it'll be positive, but is there a way to
trick the 32-bit builds to bring a 64-bit size value?
 tia & regards, Greg
