is NSInteger a 32bit integer
문제
Am I correct in thinking that declaring a NSInteger in an ios environment means it will only ever be a 32bit value?
I would like to know as I have been told by another programmer not familiar with objective c to use a int32, the only similar thing I can find in objective C is the int32_t, _t standing for 'integer type'.. but working with these types is becoming a real pain I feel like I dont have all the control functionally thats offered from objective c like NSInteger seems to get.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is how "NSInteger
" is defined in "NSObjCRuntime.h
" in older SDK's:
#if __LP64__ || (TARGET_OS_EMBEDDED && !TARGET_OS_IPHONE) || TARGET_OS_WIN32 || NS_BUILD_32_LIKE_64
typedef long NSInteger;
typedef unsigned long NSUInteger;
#else
typedef int NSInteger;
typedef unsigned int NSUInteger;
#endif
As of September 2013, iPhones now can run with 64-bit chips, which means a NSInteger might be much bigger.
In my own coding, if I'm doing pure Objective C, I'll stick with NSInteger
since that future-proofs my code for down the line. Open source stuff and certain programmers, on the other hand, love to use "uint32_t
" or "int32_t
" and other explicit types like this, so when I see those, I try to match their style in the code I'm doing that works with it.

The typedefs exist to shield you from the base type, thats why you use them instead of the raw types its called portability.
Update iOS 11: NSInteger can be 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the application built and the iOS version.
When building 32-bit applications, NSInteger is a 32-bit integer. A 64-bit application treats NSInteger as a 64-bit integer.
