Hi,
In a recent attempt in trying to clean up some compiler warnings in a
GNUstep related project i came upon a case where the FreeBSD datatypes
seemed to disagree with the Linux ones. Though this in itself is not
unusual i do wonder if in this case the Linux definition isn't the more
proper one.
The definition in question is inside <sys/shm.h> and involves
struct shmid_ds.shm_segsz which seems to be defined as "int" whereas
Linux defines this as "size_t".
I understand these definitions are usually platform dependent but am
wondering if Linux's size_t wouldn't be a more proper type for this
field .. and if it would make sense to perhaps synchronize our datatypes
used here with those used by Linux?
With kind regards,
