The OpenD Programming Language

std.stdint

D constrains integral types to specific sizes. But efficiency of different sizes varies from machine to machine, pointer sizes vary, and the maximum integer size varies. <b>stdint</b> offers a portable way of trading off size vs efficiency, in a manner compatible with the <tt>stdint.h</tt> definitions in C.

In the table below, the exact aliases are types of exactly the specified number of bits. The at least aliases are at least the specified number of bits large, and can be larger. The fast aliases are the fastest integral type supported by the processor that is at least as wide as the specified number of bits.

The aliases are:

The ptr aliases are integral types guaranteed to be large enough to hold a pointer without losing bits:

AliasDescription
intptr_tsigned integral type large enough to hold a pointer
uintptr_tunsigned integral type large enough to hold a pointer

The max aliases are the largest integral types:

AliasDescription
intmax_tthe largest signed integral type
uintmax_tthe largest unsigned integral type
