Если вы заинтересованы в чистом решении C ++, я использовал шаблоны и только стандартный код C ++ для определения типов во время компиляции на основе их размера в битах. Это делает решение переносимым между компиляторами.
Идея очень проста: создать список, содержащий типы char, int, short, long, long long (версии со знаком и без знака), отсканировать список и с помощью шаблона numeric_limits выбрать тип с заданным размером.
Включая этот заголовок, вы получили 8 типов stdtype :: int8, stdtype :: int16, stdtype :: int32, stdtype :: int64, stdtype :: uint8, stdtype :: uint16, stdtype :: uint32, stdtype :: uint64.
Если какой-либо тип не может быть представлен, он будет оценен как stdtype :: null_type, также объявленный в этом заголовке.
Код, указанный ниже, предоставляется без гарантии, пожалуйста, проверьте его.
Я новичок в METAPROGRAMMING TOO, не стесняйтесь редактировать и исправлять этот код.
