Comment on Writing 64 bit Clean code by Steven Pigeon

Steven Pigeon — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 15:39:24 +0000

You are right about relying on types that ensures you the correct sizes. Those are defined in C99’s stdint.h and stdtypes.h headers.

Also, 32 vs 64 depends a lot on the platform. You may or may not have what you describe above: for example, in 32 bits mode, you may have 16 bits int, rather than 32 bits (I’ve seen platform like this) and the same is true for 64 bits. Although the “usual” 64 bits environment is LP64 (the one you describe), you’re not sure it will be so.

So, always rely on stdint and stdtypes. Always.
