RE: [GD-General] meaning of sizeof(int) on all plateform

[Peter L. <pe...@to...>]

although according to K&R it's "typically the natural size" of integer
values on that machine. So for (certain measures of) efficiency, it's the
recommended size to use.

  sizeof(int) = size of integer value. As defined by the compiler vendor.
There is no "Correct" way to set the size of int.

    Hello all,
    I have some problem to define what represent sizeof(int).

    IMO sizeof(int) == memory bus address width

    but on platforme like PS2, you have a bus of 128 and sizeof(int) == 32.

    i have seen elsewherre that sizeof(int) == size of a register.

    Is someone have some information on this point ?
    thanks
