Try one of the gcc -switches like -m64, although that won't quite do exactly what you're asking. Maybe one of the -mtune=CPU switches (maybe not). If you're writing your own code, I'd try explicitly using int64_t, or introduce your own typedef (or #define). Or you could edit /usr/include/stdint.h which already has 32-bit typedef's for int and unsigned int, and change them to 64-bit. But that last idea's probably not recommended. -- John Forkosh ( mailto: j@f.com where j=john and f=forkosh )
