Hi,
Writing >=2GB to a socketConnection (e.g. via writeBin) does not work
correctly, because of this int typecast in modules/internet/sockconn.c:
> static size_t sock_write(const void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nitems,
> Rconnection con)
> {
> Rsockconn this = (Rsockconn)con->private;
> ssize_t n = R_SockWrite(this->fd, ptr, (int)(size * nitems),
> this->timeout)/((ssize_t)size);
> return n > 0 ? n : 0;
> }
which seems uncalled for, given:
> ssize_t R_SockWrite(int sockp, const void *buf, size_t len, int timeout)
Is there a rationale for it, or should it be fixed?
Best,
