<DIV><SPAN class=527592119-20022009><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was recently
trying to open a NITF (jpeg blocked) file whose size was roughly
5GB using the stable 1.6 release and having quite a bit of trouble.
Namely, I'm getting Access Violation Exception in the calls to
CloseHandle. I dug around in the source a bit and noticed the
code for the NITFdataset was referncing various file
indexes that were stored in 32bit int's, this would obviously cause an
issue for files of this size, maybe not specifically the issue I'm seeing but
definitely with respect to raster data access. Does anyone know if this is a
known issue and if so is there any way to work with this, or is this something
thats needing to be addressed? Thanks.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
