ULongptr

See Also: Declaring Variables, Variable Declaration Commands, Struct, AddressOf Function

Purpose

Declares one or more ULongptr variables.

Syntax

To declare ULongptr variables

ULongptr {identifier} […] {identifier}

Where:

  • {identifier} is the name of a new ULongptr variable.
  • {identifier} may be between 1 and 4096 characters in length, must start with a letter, and may not contain spaces. Recommended characters are 0-9, a-z, A-Z, and _ (underscore).

To declare array variables of type ULongptr

ULongptr {dimension-list} {identifier} […] {identifier}

Where:

  • {dimension-list} is a list of one or more array dimensions for the array. A dimension list is declared using square brackets []. One pair of brackets is used to declare each dimension. If the array is static, then you must specify the static size of each dimension between each pair of brackets, i.e., [{size}]. For more information about declaring arrays, refer to Array Variable Assignments.
  • {identifier} may be between 1 and 4096 characters in length, must start with a letter, and may not contain spaces. Recommended characters are 0-9, a-z, A-Z, and _ (underscore).

What It Does

ULongptr is an unsigned memsize type: it is a 32-bit size unsigned integer in 32-bit compilation and a 64-bit size integer in 64-bit compilation.

This way, it can always hold an unsigned pointer value without being truncated and without needing to use a compiler switch.
