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.
stdint offers a portable way of trading off size
vs efficiency, in a manner compatible with the stdint.h
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:
The max aliases are the largest integral types:
Exact Alias | Description | At Least Alias | Description | Fast Alias | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
int8_t | exactly 8 bits signed | int_least8_t | at least 8 bits signed | int_fast8_t | fast 8 bits signed |
uint8_t | exactly 8 bits unsigned | uint_least8_t | at least 8 bits unsigned | uint_fast8_t | fast 8 bits unsigned |
int16_t | exactly 16 bits signed | int_least16_t | at least 16 bits signed | int_fast16_t | fast 16 bits signed |
uint16_t | exactly 16 bits unsigned | uint_least16_t | at least 16 bits unsigned | uint_fast16_t | fast 16 bits unsigned |
