in reply to Re^3: Unpack 64 bit value
in thread Unpack 64 bit value

Can you give me the details of your system, OS, compiler, etc?

My compiler is dated
>cl /? Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 12.00.8168 for +80x86 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1984-1998. All rights reserved.

Visual Studio 6.

are you sure it doesn't support 64 bit integers in any way?

No, I don't know one way or another.

I believe that C99 specifies support for the long long int (64 bits or bigger) type as mandatory

I withdraw my suggestion.
