------------------------------------
Summary: Interpretation of "int8_t" on Solaris using SunStudio is
different from GCC one
Key: PROTON-1324
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-1324
Project: Qpid Proton
Issue Type: Bug
Components: cpp-binding
Reporter: Adel Boutros
Assignee: Cliff Jansen
Looking at the standard, there are actually 3 ways to define a char:
* char
* signed char
* unsigned char
There are no specificatoins regarding what "char" will be interperted as either
"signed char" or "unsigned char". This is left to the OS/Compiler to choose.
Solaris: int8_t --> char
Linux: int8_t --> signed char
You can check here: http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/types
{quote}
char - type for character representation which can be most efficiently
processed on the target system (has the same representation and alignment as
either signed char or unsigned char, but is always a distinct type). Multibyte
characters strings use this type to represent code units.
