I use gcc version 4.3.4, where int is 32-bit variables. Is it
possible to setup compiler to compile int as 16-bit variables?
The m86k port has 32-bit int, -mshort turns it to 16 bit.
The size of an int depends on the target - gcc supports dozens of
targets. Most have 32-bit ints, but some have 16-bit ints and at least
one has a compile-time option to support 8-bit ints (though that goes
against C standards, and is deprecated on current builds). There are
probably also targets with 64-bit ints.
You mean the avr port? int is 16 bits wide and -mint8 implements the
non-standard 8-bit int. That option was broken for quite some time,
see PR46261. But that PR is fixed now.
Where in the release notes did you read about deprecation of -mint8?
