Hi.
What do you think about replace macro "FASTBOOL" with "bool"?
http://svn.services.openoffice.org/opengrok/xref/DEV300_m83/tools/inc/tools/solar.h#FASTBOOL
For now the FASTBOOL is defined as:
typedef int FASTBOOL;
Maybe we should change it to (or remove this macro):
typedef bool FASTBOOL;
It was done, because "int" was faster than "bool".
More info:

Modern compilers are very smart, and I think we should leave optimization to
them.
What do you think about this idea?
The idea is so good that someone is already working on it. :-)
There is ongoing work to replace a lot of ancient types like BOOL,
USHORT etc. by sal_... types, with the exception that BOOL/FASTBOOl will
be replaced by bool.

Mathias
