[Fwd: mingw/include/stddef.h]


Danny,

Can you answer Corinna's question?

Earnie.

Hi,

the current `stddef.h' file contains surprisingly the following:

...
#ifndef __WCHAR_TYPE__
#ifdef __BEOS__
#define __WCHAR_TYPE__ unsigned char
#else
#define __WCHAR_TYPE__ int
#endif
#endif
...

The surprise is the definition of __WCHAR_TYPE__ as `int' in case
of !BEOS.

Wouldn't it have more sense to define it as `unsigned short'???

Corinna
