[Boost-users] [Iostreams] file_descriptor::seek() bug

Hello,

I try file_descriptor::seek() for a big file over 4GB on Win32,
but the result was not correct.

file_descriptor.cpp(185)
>        LONG lDistanceToMoveHigh =
>            off < 0xffffffff ?
>                static_cast<LONG>(off >> 32) :
>                0;

I think that lDistanceToMoveHigh always becomes 0.
The condition above should be "off > 0xffffffff".
