Question:

Issue with large files ~1GB

Nov 07 '16 at 10:50

Hi,

We are facing issue with mime files of size around 1 GB. I am not able to decrypt them using decrypt() method. I have tried to debug and reviewed the LastErrorText message and I could see It just gave me message "Failed". When I debug I could see I am getting error at below line.

success = mime.LoadMimeFile(file);

Here it is returning false and mime is becoming null. Could you please help in this context.

Let me know if you need further information.

Regards Jyothi

Answer

My guess would be that you are running out of memory with the large files. Perhaps Chilkat needs some BeginDecrypt/DecryptMore/EndDecrypt methods, or some way to decrypt to a file in chunks?

Hi,

Could you please give me some sample code to do this. I don't see these methods in fact.
