I propose to add several new types with EXACT bit length into this file: ------------------------------- typedef __int8 zend_int8; typedef __int16 zend_int16; typedef __int32 zend_int32; typedef __int64 zend_int64; typedef unsigned __int8 zend_uint8; typedef unsigned __int16 zend_uint16; typedef unsigned __int32 zend_uint32; typedef unsigned __int64 zend_uint64; -------------------------------
Sorry but this idea is out of question. The idea was always that PHP is 64 bit capable as soon you run it on a 64 bit machine. Same for 128 bit machines in the future. It is a stupid idea to limit the number of bits. Especially if you have to call libc functions... Stefan Esser
