"short" and "long" do not unambiguously define types. "int16_t" (ANSI C and C++) or gint16 make it clear that you want a 16 bit integral value. wchar_t is widely derided on unix platforms. its not useful and should apparently be forgotten about if you want to write cross-platform code. its not how internationalization is done on most POSIX-ish OS's. --p _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
