Subject: Prevalence of Compilers for Which Integer'Size < 32?
Date: 1996/07/26

Message-ID: <dmarshalDv4vLI.D6E@netcom.com> (raw)


So here I am, looking at some old code while I wonder what I was
thinking when I wrote it.  Suddenly, I see something that will raise
Constraint_Error if a compiler's Integer'Size is less than 32.

So, how prevalent are such compilers?  Is it really something that one
ought to consider when implementing components that are candidates for
reuse?

I did try to find such information in the usual places; if it's there,
I don't know exactly where.

So now:

a) I don't know where to look.

b) I am neither industrious nor concerned enough to look any further.

c) Maybe someone will look for me.
