The question was "what advantage is there for using NSInteger/
NSUInteger". The answer is 64-bit transition of your Cocoa apps.
-corbin
this "raises" a question i've been meaning to ask for a while:
can anyone speculate as to whether or not the (near) future world is
64 bit apps only (ie, 32 bit apps will no longer work -- similar to
the way classic apps no longer work.)?
currently, i believe there are small performance penalties for 64-bit
apps as we still are in a primarily 32 bit world. i imagine this will
shift over the next few years, but will 32 bit apps no longer work?
thanx for any thoughts/guidance (as to whether or not it is worth the
effort to become a 64 bit app),
ken
