Unix.LargeFile(3o)               OCaml library              Unix.LargeFile(3o)

NAME
       Unix.LargeFile - File operations on large files.

Module
       Module   Unix.LargeFile

Documentation
       Module LargeFile
        : sig end

       File  operations on large files.  This sub-module provides 64-bit vari-
       ants of the functions Unix.LargeFile.lseek (for positioning a file  de-
       scriptor),  Unix.LargeFile.truncate  and  Unix.LargeFile.ftruncate (for
       changing the size of a file),  and  Unix.LargeFile.stat  ,  Unix.Large-
       File.lstat  and  Unix.LargeFile.fstat  (for  obtaining  information  on
       files).  These alternate functions represent  positions  and  sizes  by
       64-bit  integers (type int64 ) instead of regular integers (type int ),
       thus allowing operating on files whose sizes are greater than max_int .

       val lseek : Unix.file_descr -> int64 -> Unix.seek_command -> int64

       See lseek .

       val truncate : string -> int64 -> unit

       See truncate .

       val ftruncate : Unix.file_descr -> int64 -> unit

       See ftruncate .
