[bug] tc 6.55 sizelimit

Post by *byblo »

Using the DiskDirExtended 1.4, I have created the following LST file content :

Code: Select all

C:\
Folder_x\	0	2005.9.9	3:54.34
file.bin	4677795839	2004.10.12	17:16.54
When entering on the archive the reported size of file.bin is 382.828.543 instead of 4.677.795.839

I check on totalcmd.net and found into the changelog of diskdirext :

Code: Select all

Changelog:
1.4
  added possibility to modify the list file
  better handling of 'Cancel' button
  huge files (> 4GB) are internally handled correctly, but the user sees their sizes incorrectly due to limitations of TotalCmd API for packer plugins
Is tc7 have this issue fixed ?

Unfortunately the packer plugin interface uses 32-bit signed variables for the sizes. Therefore Total Commander 7 will support a new function ReadHeaderEx which supports 64-bit numbers for the size fields (and some other enhancements). TC will call ReadHeaderEx if it's present, otherwise ReadHeader to stay compatible with older plugins.
