I'm working on getting rid of the compiler warnings on 64 bit Windows.
There are literally thousands of places, where we store a size_t in an int, and the compiler warns about possible loss of data.
I'm trying to figure out how to handle this in the best way, and I need a bit of advice on how to proceed.
First, is it acceptable to change all/most of these vars from int to size_t? In places where there is a local variable that stores the difference between two pointers, it's fine. But what about places like struct z_stream_s in zlib.h?
How do you guys prefer to see patches on this - one big patch, or several smaller patches?
