File and Path Function

int lstat64(const char *filename, struct stat64 *buf);

Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview

The lstat64 function is similar to lstat but it is also able to work on files larger then 2^31 bytes on 32-bit systems. To be able to do this, the result is stored in a variable of type struct stat64, to which buf must point. lstat64 returns 0 on success and -1 on failure, setting the global errno variable with the error value.

I18n Issues

On ANSI UTF-16 platforms, use a conversion function to convert the wide-character string to a multibyte-character string and then call lstat64.

See Pathnames for a discussion of path and filename considerations in an internationalized application.

*If you're already using the recommended function, see I18n Issues for other reasons why Globalyzer is detecting the function.
