FWIW, I'd be fine with replacing all ints with apr_int32_t in places where we interact with apr_array_header_t and similar. Widening promotions to int would be automatic, and narrowing conversions on 16-bit platforms would (presumably) make compilers yell very loudly. The only reason /not/ to do that is marginally worse performance on some 64-bit platforms. -- Brane -- Branko Čibej | Director of Subversion WANdisco // Non-Stop Data e. [email protected]
