Hi all,

#1 Weekend recreational programmer here. Primarily versant in K&R C,
though I have dealt with some MFC programming and C++ also. Just not
as comfortable.

#2 Trying to compile some cross platform GPL code OSALP (audio
routines) under MSVC 6.0. First problem is "long long" type not
supported.

#3 Google searching this topic, there is a fair amount of discussion
but not too much recent. "Long long" definitely not natively handled
in MSVC.

#4 How would I go about finding this wonderful stdint.h file and using
it within MSVC++ 6.0?

#5 Anyone who has used the OSALP code under MSVC please let me know
any other important tips. Just trying to compile the examples so I
can use the sample rate coversion routines within another program I've
written.

TIA!

Gary
