I believe int used to be and then Microsoft mucked it up from 32 to 64, and
thus you get the warning (for what it's worth I grew up with the
Commodore/Amiga line of products, and had to join the dark side).
I use Vista 64 at work, and can say in confidence that osg works great in 32
bit mode. I have not tried to compile osg in 64bit yet, but I did see there is
a 64bit platform available in cmake. I code in x64 all the time at work now,
and it is great to step into and see the new 64 bit assembly. I no longer feel
nauseous coding on the inferior 8088 processor.

integerofdifferent size
Hi James,
I always thought that "int" and "unsigned int" would be the best fit n-bit on
the system? if it was an 8bit system
then it would be 8bit int, if 32bit system then 32bit int.... or did I
mis-understand something?
and now that we are on the subject of 64bit.. I would like to ask a
question... I considering buying a new
computer and OS -- the OS (I know Robert will hate this).. is going to be
Vista 64 bit and would like to
start coding using 64bit.. is OpenSceneGraph working with 64bit?
regards,
Peter

I am not sure about the osg coding protocol, but for what we do at my work
place we use size_t as the generic "unsigned int"... this will be unsigned long
for win32 and __int64 for the x64 platform. It is good to use as a generic
container for local variables since it chooses the native size that fits best
per platform. size_t is great for pointer offsets too.
The part that is unclear to me is the osg protocol in regards to using
things like size_t fpos_t etc... osg has to be more generic to comply to all
platforms, and this is something I have not needed to worry about (yet).

Subject: [osg-users] Warning on 64bits: cast to pointer from integer
ofdifferent size
On x86_64 (Suse 10.3) the following warning appears at lines 431 and 600
of BufferObject.cpp :
"warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size"
In both places (few lines over), if I change the line:
unsigned int offset = 0;
to:
unsigned long offset = 0;
The warning goes away.
Can anyone more knowledgeable than me confirm that the change is correct
before I submit the change?
Thanks!
