From 7e6fb333f7a5f50d73a354790d9cbaf19b762724 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Reiter Date: Sun, 5 Aug 2018 21:56:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] meson: define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 for MinGW. See #1476 The autotools build set it by default and we use off_t in various places, even on Windows. Also set it with the meson build to avoid any regressions. Ideally we shouldn't use off_t and use 64bit capable API on Windows instead, so we get large file support with MSVC as well. --- meson.build | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) diff --git a/meson.build b/meson.build index f758365f3..20bdb3743 100644 --- a/meson.build +++ b/meson.build @@ -114,6 +114,14 @@ if host_system == 'windows' glib_conf.set('BROKEN_POLL', true) endif +if host_system == 'windows' and cc.get_id() != 'msvc' + # FIXME: Ideally we shouldn't depend on this on Windows and should use + # 64 bit capable Windows API that also works with MSVC. + # The autotools build did set this for mingw and while meson sets it + # for gcc/clang by default, it doesn't do so on Windows. + glib_conf.set('_FILE_OFFSET_BITS', 64) +endif + # Check for GNU visibility attributes g_have_gnuc_visibility = cc.compiles(''' void
