Hi Gabriel, ECL just needs an integer type that fits a pointer. That type is used for defining cl_fixnum / cl_index, and in various places you will find conversions to and from cl_object. In the LLP model, which I did not know of until now (*), both "int" and "long" are 32-bit and pointers are 64-bits, which means they can not be used to implement cl_fixnum / cl_integer. If you find time, ECL's autoconf may be fixed to add that additional type to the list of candidates for cl_fixnum / cl_integer.
Juanjo (*) From a lot of code out there I gave for granted that "long" must be long enough to fit a pointer, which is why ECL's autoconf just uses "int" and "long" as candidates for cl_fixnum. This is probably a too old assumption, but I fail to see the utility of the LLP model given that :-/ -- Instituto de Física Fundamental, CSIC c/ Serrano, 113b, Madrid 28006 (Spain) http://juanjose.garciaripoll.googlepages.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Ecls-list mailing list Ecls-list@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ecls-list
