I see lots of information online regarding when Visual Studio/Visual C++
versions started being able to use the ll modifier (since version VC++
2003/7.1,
apparently), but I don't see the same information detailing when msvcrt.dll was
able to use the ll modifier.
On my Windows XP x64 SP2 computer, my c:\windows\system32\msvcrt.dll has
version
7.0.3790.3959. I'd like to compile a list of msvcrt.dll versions and whether
or
not they support the ll modifier.
Would others on this list try to compile the following test program to see
whether or not the full 64bit number is printed? And after that, could you
report back here to let us know if it worked or not, and what version of
msvcrt.dll you have, and what version of OS you are running?
#include <stdio.h>
#include <inttypes.h>
int main(void) {
uintmax_t x = 1125899906842749LL;
printf("%llu\n", x);
return 0;
}
Kai/Ozkan, so when I compile a program with printf, how does mingw64 know which
OS dll will handle the printf. Or is an assumption made that msvcrt.dll will
be
available to handle the request? Or do you just past the printf "to the OS"
and
the OS knows how to fill the printf request?
