Appendix B

Platform-Specific Types and Constants

This appendix lists the platform-specific types and constants.

Types

Crypto-C requires these platform-specific types: POINTER, UINT2, and UINT4. These can be found in the file aglobal.h.

POINTER

A POINTER value is a generic pointer to memory to which any other pointer can be cast.

Example:

typedef unsigned char *POINTER;

UINT2

A UINT2 value is a 16-bit unsigned integer.
