Zip 64

by j0zf on Wednesday November 4th, 2009 1:15 pm

Just found out about Zip64 from Scott today; he's having to deal with zip64 files in PHP for a data transfer project.  Heck, I didn't even know it existed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)#Technical_information

From the page:
The original ZIP format had a 4GB limit on various things (uncompressed size of a file, compressed size of a file and total size of the archive), as well as a limit of 65535 entries in a zip archive. In version 4.5 of the specification (which is not the same as v4.5 of any particular tool), PKWARE introduced the "ZIP64" format extensions to get around these limitations. Zip64 support is emerging. For example, the File Explorer in Windows XP does not support ZIP64, but the Explorer in Windows Vista does. Likewise - some libraries, such as IO::Compress::Zip in Perl, have new support for ZIP64, while others, such as Java's built-in java.util.zip, still lack it.

Discussing with Dee an "Image Archival Program" for our designers.

From the page:
A large number of customers of Rackspace Cloud, including Techcrunch, have been experiencing sporadic downtime for the past hour or so. The status blog reports that the service was degraded, and other reports state that it is due to a power outage at the Dallas network operations center. Customers of both Rackspace Cloud and Slicehost are affected, putting services such as Posterous, Dailybooth, tr.im and others out of commission.
