According to the posix definition of "ftruncate" , a file is made larger by writing zeroes up to the size desired.
My implementation of Fat File System can quickly extend a file by allocating more sectors, but will take a long time to write all those new sectors with zeroes. So, is zero filling absolutely necessary? Also, is ftruncate ever called to shorten a file? _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
