Hi,
for normal I always program in c++, not pure c.
I have a question regarding data types used in kernel or other
code in the netbsd project.
For written data (to file) in my programs, I use the "int32_t" or
"uint32_t" types.
Is it okay to use those types (from /usr/include/sys/stdint.h) in
"netbsd-compatible" code, regarding the style?
(I read "u_long" somewhere)?
/usr/share/misc/style doesn't really answer my question...
