estdint
Overview
The header estdint.h addresses compatibility across different platforms for standard integer
types. It is inspired from the standard stdint.h header file, which is included in C99 or C++11
standards but is not available for C++98.
Usage
If you include <platform/estdint.h> this will provide on all supported platforms the same types
and constants to your program as if you were including
stdint.h and
stddef.h on a C++11
environment, so that all types including size_t are available.
Strictly speaking it’s an error to use size_t instead of std::size_t. However, most
compilers allow that and our code base heavily relies on the availability of size_t in the
global namespace. estdint.h is the place to make this possible if a given platform would not
support this.
