I can't remember ever seeing one whose interface involved a size-named type. Can you give me some examples? While my code is allowed to rely upon POSIX, by it's very nature my code has a few calls to actual POSIX routines - so it would be easy for me to miss. >>> ... or worked on a Unix or >>> Linux kernel? >> >> That's not particularly odd - I think it's safe to assume that most >> programmers haven't done kernel programming, even among the ones who >> work on Unix-like systems. > > But they are likely to have at least seen some code... I've been working on unix-like systems on-and-off since 1979, and continuously since 1996, and I don't think I've ever had any need to look at kernel code. If I did have a need, I wasn't aware of that need, so I've never actually seen any. -- James Kuyper
