[snip]
In the above code `ftell` will fail in Windows if the file is 2GB or
more, because in Windows, even in 64-bit Windows, the `ftell` return
type `long` is just 32 bits.
However, the C++ level iostreams can report the file size correctly:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h> // fopen, fseek, ftell, fclose
#include <stdlib.h> // EXIT_...
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <stdexcept> // runtime_error
using namespace std;
auto hopefully( const bool e ) -> bool { return e; }
auto fail( const char* s ) -> bool { throw runtime_error( s ); }
struct Is_zero {};
auto operator>>( int x, Is_zero ) -> bool { return x == 0; }
const auto& filename = "large_file";
void c_level_check()
{
struct C_file
{
FILE* handle;
~C_file() { if( handle != 0 ) { fclose( handle ); } }
};
auto const f = C_file{ fopen( ::filename, "rb" ) };
hopefully( !!f.handle )
or fail( "fopen failed" );
fseek( f.handle, 0, SEEK_END )
>> Is_zero()
or fail( "fseek failed, probably rather biggus filus" );
const long pos = ftell( f.handle );
hopefully( pos >= 0 )
or fail( "ftell failed" );
cout << "`ftell` says the file is " << pos << " byte(s)." << endl;
}
void cpp_level_check()
{
auto f = ifstream( ::filename, ios::in | ios::binary );
f.seekg( 0, ios::end );
const ifstream::pos_type pos = f.tellg();
hopefully( pos != -1 )
or fail( "ifstream::tellg failed" );
cout << "`ifstream::tellg` says the file is " << pos << " bytes."
<< endl;
}
void cpp_main()
{
try {
c_level_check();
} catch( const exception& x ) {
cerr << "!" << x.what() << endl;
cpp_level_check();
}
}
auto main() -> int
{
try {
cpp_main();
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
} catch( const exception& x ) {
cerr << "!" << x.what() << endl;
}
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I tested this with `large_file` as a copy of the roughly 4GB
"Bad.Boys.for.Life.2020.1080p.WEB-DL.DD5.1.H264-FGT.mkv", I got
[c:\root\dev\explore\filesize]
> b
!ftell failed
`ifstream::tellg` says the file is 4542682554 bytes.
