Those have other reasons for being. qint64 exists because it's "long long" on most platforms and compilers, except for MSVC. On that case, it's __int64. The standard type "long long" is available only on C++11. quintptr has no standard type to match. qptrdiff has one: ptrdiff_t. The closest to quintptr is size_t. That one has a different problem though: it's not exactly the same type as our quint64, since GCC defines it to "unsigned long", not "unsigned long long", on 64-bit platforms. We have avoided using "long" in Qt 4, so this type would suffer from even more template issues. Also, both size_t and ptrdiff_t require an #include.
