Re: [Boost-users] Using ofstream with xml_oarchive to write a file larger than 2GB

Do you know for a fact that your ostream implemenation can handle such a large file? xml_oarchive depends upon ostream for all its output. You'll need to investigate this more deeply to get an answer. Robert Ramey Thomas D'Silva wrote:

Hello,

I am trying to serialize data using boost::archive::xml_oarchive. When the resulting file is larger than 2GB, I get an error saying "File size limit exceeded". I am using gcc version 3.2.2. I was wondering if there is a way to use ofstream with boost::archive::xml_oarchive to write files larger than 2GB using gcc version 3.2.2.

Thank you, Thomas D'Silva
