Why the hard coded value 512 ?
To find the real size of the file I tried this : RealSize = st_blocks * st_blksize;
st_blksize returned was 4096
And the real size far execeeded the stat size (should be the opposite for sparse files)
Perhaps reading the documentation would help? From the stat(2) man page: The size-related fields of the structures are as follows: st_blksize The optimal I/O block size for the file. st_blocks The actual number of blocks allocated for the file in 512-byte units.
