How should i use 64-bit data in GCC under Linux?

[miracle]

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
cout<<sizeof(__int64)<<endl;
}

comiple using G++:
error: `__int64' undeclared (first use this function)

But I can use the same code in Vim for Windows XP with no error.
Why? Who can help me?

So? Vim is just an editor. You could use the same code in MS Word for Windows XP with no error as well.

By the way, did you try searching the board?

oh , sorry, i did not express it clearly. i mean that i comiple the same code using G++ with no
error under Win XP

In Cygwin and Mingw, "__int64" is defined as a macro, for compatibility with Microsoft's code.

64-bit integer types in GCC are "long long" and "unsigned long long".

Thanks to mf, i've got it

Well, the part about Mingw it true, but about Cygwin - not. miracle's code fails there as expected.

Ah yes, you're right.
I didn't try to compile the code, just looked at the headers. In cygwin, __int64 gets defined when you include some windows-specific file, like windows.h.
