https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20930 Issue ID: 20930 Summary: std.zip: Remove 4 GB size limit Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P1 Component: phobos Assignee: nobody puremagic.com Reporter: andre s-e-a-p.de std.zip is throwing an exception while trying to open a file > 4 GB https://github.com/dlang/phobos/blob/master/std/zip.d#L660 In my case I want to open an 8 GB file. The size limit seems unnecessary as zlib supports files > 4 GB as stated in the FAQ https://zlib.net/zlib_faq.html Could you check whether support for zip files > 4 GB could be added to std.zip? --
