Since you can only read 2GB (Count is a longint) in a single read

Note that the operating system only allows 2Gb reads anyway, even on

systems.


Hi Michael,

Thanks but that's not the problem. I can't even write 2bytes to a 2GB memory/file stream.

See: http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=23284 for attached test case shows simple math exactly like read/write in streams

This is another glitch that I must overcome. My sync app can't handle zip files >=~2GB

The problem is with overflow.  FPC raises an exception (as it should).
I realize this is going to affect a couple base classes too.
