Hi,
I landed bug 780203 last night, so you should be able to use stdint
types when you add or modify idl interfaces. So I would encourage you
to do so when its not too far out of your way.
We might want to add size_t / ssize_t also, but that's a little tricker
we might well want to add size_t / ssize_t as well, but for those we
need to deal with primitive types whose size depends on archetecture
when generating xpts etc.
I don't think we should add size_t ssize_t to IDL at this time. The
variable-size types would require some surgery on xptinfo/xptcall, and I
think the gain would be pretty small.
If somebody wants to mass-change IDL to the standard types and then make
deprecation warnings if you use "long", I'd take that patch.
