Using fflush to clear the buffers before calling _lseeki64 sounds reasonable, so I think I'll try that.
I noticed another problem with _lseeki64 though. It returns the new file pointer position on success instead of 0, so the macro will have to take that into account. > That source also includes an fseeki64()/ftelli64(), but they are not > defined in stdio.h.

Those functions are not exported by XPs msvcrt.dll, so declaring them won't help. _______________________________________________ flac-dev mailing list flac-dev@xiph.org http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/flac-dev
