My advice: You usually do NOT want to compile with -pedantic. That option exists for programs that are sticking _strictly_ to the C standard, but lseek() and off_t are not part of the C standard. There is no portable way to be pedantic to the C89 standard and simultaneously use 64-bit offsets. The situation is better in C99, since that introduced 64-bit types. If you want to use %lld, you have to use C99, not C89; use gcc -std=c99 or gcc -std=gnu99. By omitting -std, you got gcc's default, which for now is still -std=c89. > Wondering how to printf an off_t value without the compiler complaining while > using -Wall -pedantic. You can't. So drop the -pedantic. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
