38 * file API or ANSI stream.

41 *
42 * There may be limitation on the size that can be handled by the
43 * #pj_file_setpos() or #pj_file_getpos() functions. The API itself
44 * uses 64-bit integer for the file offset/position (where available);
45 * however some backends (such as ANSI) may only support signed 32-bit
46 * offset resolution.
47 *
48 * Reading and writing operation uses signed 32-bit integer to indicate
49 * the size.
