Ronald Oussoren added the comment: I'd write the extended header when the current file size is larger than the zip64 limit (that is, when 'st.st_size > ZIP64_LIMIT' in the write method.
That way the minimal header size is used whenever possible. As you noted this can cause problems when the file grows beyond the limit while it is stored in the zipfile, but IMHO storing data while it is modified is asking for problems anyway. BTW. I haven't actually review the patch yet. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9720> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
