Using signed for size types is crucial because the API expects to be able to count backwards from the end and needs to report failure in other situations. So unsigned is simply ruled out. There are also no pathological cases since there is no overflow. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
