But when I use it, the max number it can store is 0xffffffff. So, is there any way to get 64bits ints on a ia32? (of course I am talking only about the gcc compiler, I know that I can't manage those amounts of bits and store them on a general porpouse register) Thanks in advance. -- Ricardo Catalinas Jimenez Madrid, Spain. th1nk3r(at)server01(dot)org citizen01@jabber.org My gpg public key at: http://www.server01.org/pubkey
