LibTiff Mailing List

Hi All- 
I'm trying to use libtiff to handle images that exceed 2 gigabytes, 
but it appears that the library is unable to read files of that size. 
Is this true? I cannot find any postings or documentation
on the limits of the library. Could somebody please clarify this
for me so that I can either fix the problem or abandon this effort.
I do believe that I could try redefining toff_t and some others to
__int64, and replacing GetFileSize with GetFileSizeEx, etc, etc,
but I'm not certain if the whole library is geared for that.

Thanks,
Ben Harper
