We have a database library we want to use in our embedded application but it requires 64 bit longs (long long or _int64). Our current compiler doesn't support this type and won't anytime soon. As it is a C++ compiler, is it not true that I can overload the basic arithmetic operators and create my own "longlong" type?
I'm not terribly familiar with C++ but I figure it something that can be done and maybe it's been done already.
Anyone know of any public domain code for this?
