According to the C++ standard, the pointer size depends on the particular compiler implementation and does not relate directly to the platform capacity. In its turn, within the framework of a...
At present, the Microsoft Visual C++ and GCC compilers do not allow you to use 32-bit pointers in 64-bit software created for processors based on x86-64 architecture. You can use 64-bit registers and...
To work with size_t, ptrdiff_t, intptr_t and uintptr_t types in the functions like sscanf, printf you may use size specifiers. If you are developing a Windows-application, you may use the size...
The ReactOS project is rapidly developing. One of the developers participating in this project suggested that we re-analyzed the source code, as the code base is growing fast. We were glad to do...
OpenCV is a library of computer vision algorithms, picture processing algorithms, and general-purpose numerical algorithms. The library is written in C/C++ and is free both for academic and...
In this article, I've collected a huge amount of links all of which could prove potentially useful to software developers who are getting acquainted with 64-bit world. In general, we will cover C/C...
When developing an application, you may often face a trouble that variables of the types __int64, size_t, or ptrdiff_t are printed incorrectly. First of all we should mention the difference between...
