memset(&maxInt, 0xff, sizeof(maxInt));"maxInt = -1" is would be a more obvious way to write it, IMHO.Both pale in comparison to UINT32_MAX, also found in <stdint.h>.
Meh. The advantage of the existing code is that it doesn't repeat the size of valInt/maxInt anywhere. If you were going to give op on this nice property, you might as well get rid of maxInt completely, and instead of:
((double) maxInt)+1.0 write: 0x1P32
