I was working on extended integers and added qint128 and quint128 to qglobal.h
(qtypes.h), but when I tried to rebuild all of Qt today, I found out that
QtBluetooth has this in qbluetoothuuid.h:
struct quint128
{
quint8 data[16];
};
And it's used in the API, with a constructor and a toUInt128(), but that's
all. It's also not documented.
I'd like to move it away so I can add the proper integer.
There's a way to replace it without breaking BC or SC:
1) on 64-bit systems with GCC and Clang, use the actual integer type
2) everywhere else, use the the struct
3) for QtBluetooth's own build, add a removed_api.cpp that also #undef
__SIZEOF_INT128__
It might be a good idea to move that backup definition to QtCore, so
QtBluetooth isn't depending on just how qtypes.h does it.
