- The most recent Sun ANSI C compiler (Sparc Works 2.0.1) supports a 64-bit
- integer type called "long long". Since this type is only available with
- the compiler in "strict ANSI" mode, I suppose it is part of the proposed
- ANSI C standard. Is this true?
-
- But more importantly, are there any existing proposals to add "long long"
- to the C++ standard? Such a data type would be quite useful. Are there
- any existing C++ compilers that support, or plan to support this type?
