hyper
Remarks
The keyword hyper
indicates a 64-bit integer that can be declared as either signed or unsigned.
The hyper
type is one of the base types of the interface definition language (IDL). The hyper
type can appear as a type specifier in const declarations, typedef
declarations, general declarations, and function declarators (as a
function-return-type specifier and as a parameter-type specifier). For the
context in which type specifiers appear, see IDL.
Note For 16-bit
platforms, the MIDL compiler replaces unsigned hyper integers with MIDL_uhyper.
This allows interfaces with unsigned hyper integers to be defined on platforms
that do not directly support 64-bit integers. MIDL_uhyper is defined in
the RPC header files.
