Re: [Gambas-user] How to handle unsigned Integer, Short, Long

If you declare variable as integer in Gambas and pass it as unsigned 32bit variable to lib made with C, then I don't think the lib will notice any difference. It's just that Gambas will show large values of that variable as negative numbers. Jussi On Wed, Jan 22, 2014 at 3:19 PM, wally wrote:

Hello @Jussi, i must handle a lot of 4byte uint32_t values which represents node IP addresses of devices in a rs232 ring network. I know i might use long instead of unsigned 4byte integer, but i expected there is a keyword "unsigned" somewhere to declare as needed. The "long" approach for uint32_

Instead of unsigned integer and short, why not just normal signed long? It can hold same values. Integer is variable of 32 bits and it's declaration determines how the first bit is interpreted. So in some cases it doesn't matter. Where do you need these exactly? Jussi On Wed, Jan 22, 2014 at 11:
