intptr_t standard?

[nikanth]

Isn't intptr_t part of the latest ISO C++?
It is part of the C99 standard but C++? Has any new standard for C++
after C++ 2003 which is almost same as C++98 published?
Which are the compilers that supports it completely?

on gcc (GCC) 3.3.3 (SuSE Linux) I dont get any error when using
intptr_t even after specifying -std=c89

Is any new standard for C published after C99?

A diagnostic is required - and gcc gives one when invoked in conforming
mode:

foo.c:8: `intptr_t' undeclared (first use in this function)

Not yet. Give them time.

We don't know. This is comp.lang.c. comp.lang.c++ is down the hall,
third door on the left, just past the water cooler.

intptr_t is defined in <stdint.h>, which is a new standard header in
C99. As far as C89/C90 is concerned, <stdint.his a non-standard
header; #including it and using declarations from it doesn't warrant a
warning any more than using any other non-standard header.

There's not a full standard, but there have been two Technical
Corrigenda. A version of the C99 standard with TC1 and TC2 merged
into it is freely available as n1124.pdf (Google it).

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.
