HI,

The variable argument list handling in stdarg.h of MyLIB is defined as below.

typedef char *	va_list;

#define	__va_size(type) \
	(((sizeof(type) + sizeof(long) - 1) / sizeof(long)) * sizeof(long))

#define va_start(ap, last)	( ap = (va_list)&last +  __va_size(last) )
#define va_arg(ap, type)	((type *)(ap += sizeof(type)))[-1]



I have a question about the casting in printf. Below is the example about the 
question.

Ex:	
unsigned long long ull = 0x0000000100000003;	//MyLIB		FreeBSD	Linux
printf(“%Lu”, ull);				//4294967299	4294967299
printf(“%lu”, ull);				//1		3	3
printf(“%lu”, (unsigned long)ull);		//3		3	3


"ull" is a 8-byte value, if we want print it in unsigned long form, we will 
get "0x00000001" without the casting first, "0x00000003" if casting first.

I think the behavior is correct since argument type in va_arg() is unsigned long
(because of "%lu"), it only handles first 4 bytes, so we will get "0x00000001" 
without casting first.

But why I can get "0x00000003" on FreeBSD/Linux platform!?? I don't understand.
Hope someone can solve my doubt. Thanks!



Sincerely,
Y.T.
