I would think tha size of int would be 8?
I think the AMD-64 hardware even requires an explicit length prefix on every 64-bit integer machine instruction; otherwise it's 32-bit. Addresses are different, and normally 64 bits. So one answer might be, C is following the hardware's lead. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
