I assume on 64 bit architectures the int will be 64 >bit, is this correct? No. There should be one of two C macros defined by your 64-bit compiler: __LP64__ or __LLP64__ . The first one implies that for 64 bits you use "long int" and the second one implies that you use "long long int"; they also imply that all pointers are 64-bit. Without any "long" prefix an integer remains 32-bit. GCC defines __LP64__ . But an undecorated "int" declares a 32-bit integer. >I haven't found anything in the ctypes unit, >should I use ifdefs to define my GBoolean or is there a more elegant >one-liner to easily get such an integer sized bool? Leave it as you currently have it. -- Regards, Dave [RLU #314465] ======================================================================= david.w.n...@ntlworld.com (David W Noon) =======================================================================
