Status: Accepted Owner: dsallings Labels: Type-Defect Priority-Medium New issue 70 by dsallings: Incorrect data type when referencing the data size of an item. http://code.google.com/p/memcached/issues/detail?id=70
The item struct records the number of bytes as an int. This should be unsigned. While in there, we should probably ensure that no reference to a size is ever processed in a signed way. Note that while size_t has been suggested, it may be inappropriate as the size is generally assumed to be significantly less than 2^32 bytes long. Support for a 64-bit object size would probably require lots of changes we don't expect to see here anyway. (four gigs ought to be enough for any item) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
