26GB text file

I have a 26GB logfile that was produced by my program. What is the best free text editor to read such a file?? John

del How useful could it be anyways? :)
I just wanted to see what recent operation was causing the log to balloon out of control.. John

How long do you think such an import would take? :rolleyes: :-D -- Gnnnnmmmpppppppfffffhhh!

Now, try two or three 26GB searches with a text editor. :-D Talking about large data, DBMS is still one of the best tools.

;Thanks for the idea. I've never thought about using a database this way before. :) -- Gnnnnmmmpppppppfffffhhh!

You'll probably be better off writing your own program to read the last few lines and write in in another file.. Visual Studio just gives up if the file is too big... --------------------------------------------------
I just found that out. Here is the error message: An unknown error has occurred while accessing an unnamed file. John

well actually total commander internal lister (F3). The only possible solutions, as far as reading only goes. The advantage is that it takes virtually no resources and 0 loading time or that stuff it streames dynamically, so size is just limited by your HD and OS but not by this app.
I totally agree. Fastest viewer by far :) leppie::AllocCPArticle(Generic DFA State Machine for .NET);

Right click it and choose print, then bring out your favourite coloured marker...

I knew it was a database problem so I stopped the system and put a breakpoint where the error was being logged and I found out the database was missing an essential record. After adding the record all was well, but I must not assume a query returns a record from now on... {EDIT] Good thing I keep a copy of the complete source code tree of the current running executable... [/EDIT] John

Notepad ;) Ok, serious, I think Visual Studio should be able to handle it... - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!" http://SourceLocker.net[^] SourceControl and DefectTracker Project.

UNIX tools use longs for file positioning and don't support files > 4GB.

;Even when it works, the command i gave would've only shown him the last 10 lines. I was expressing my amazement at his need more than offering a valid solution.

I don't even want to know how long that will take to print... John

As already mentioned the internal lister of Total Commander handles test files of several GBs without any problem (it's an viewer, not an editor). One of the many wonderful features of the tool :) bart

:beer: + :java: = NULL :=> X|Thanks. I was able to see what I wanted by copying the log deleting it and restarting the program. Through a debug I found out exactly what was causing the problem and it now is fixed... John
