excuse my ignorance,
I haven't yet moved to Tiger and Xcode 2 but I'm wondering if there
is a way of dealing with 2GB+ files using CoreData.
is there a 64bit version of NSData or something?
Technically, you could shove a 2GB+ hunk of data into managed object
contained within SQLite based store.
But you really, really don't want to do that. It is going to be
horrendously inefficient and likely quite slow.
Keep the 2GB+ files on disk and shove URLs/paths into the attributes
of your managed objects. Keep the whole thing in a folder, put an
extension on it and treat it like a document, if you want.
