[New-bugs-announce] [issue19433] Define PY_UINT64_T on Windows 32bit

[Christian Heimes]

New submission from Christian Heimes:

For PEP 456 it would be useful to have PY_UINT64_T on 32bit Windows. Does anybody see a problem with Victor's idea? I like it.

Victor wrote in http://bugs.python.org/issue19183#msg201629:

To support Windows 32 bit, the following code in PC/pyconfig.h can be modified to use __int64 or _W64: see ssize_t definition below in the same file.

#ifndef PY_UINT64_T
#if SIZEOF_LONG_LONG == 8
#define HAVE_UINT64_T 1
#define PY_UINT64_T unsigned PY_LONG_LONG
#endif
#endif
