But according to the docs NSData is limited to 2GB.
What I am wondering is... How can one handle files larger than 2GB?
Override the path / URL based methods from NSDocument instead, and
read the interesting portions of the files piece-by-piece. You
typically don't want to load all of it into RAM at once.
Are you saying that usually the whole document is loaded into memory
by default?
I though NSData would handle the access just transparently. Otherwise
that would be good to keep in mind also for files slightly smaller
than 2GB :)
