Module Targetint

module Targetint: sig .. end

Target processor-native integers.

This module provides operations on the type of signed 32-bit integers (on 32-bit target platforms) or signed 64-bit integers (on 64-bit target platforms). This integer type has exactly the same width as that of a pointer type in the C compiler. All arithmetic operations over are taken modulo 232 or 264 depending on the word size of the target architecture.

Warning: this module is unstable and part of compiler-libs.


type t;

The type of target integers.

let zero: t;

The target integer 0.

let one: t;

The target integer 1.

let minus_one: t;

The target integer -1.

let neg: t => t;

Unary negation.

let add: (t, t) => t;

Addition.

let sub: (t, t) => t;

Subtraction.

let mul: (t, t) => t;

Multiplication.

let div: (t, t) => t;

Integer division. Raise Division_by_zero if the second argument is zero. This division rounds the real quotient of its arguments towards zero, as specified for (/).

let unsigned_div: (t, t) => t;

Same as Targetint.div, except that arguments and result are interpreted as unsigned integers.

let rem: (t, t) => t;

Integer remainder. If y is not zero, the result of Targetint.rem x y satisfies the following properties: Targetint.zero <= Nativeint.rem x y < Targetint.abs y and x = Targetint.add (Targetint.mul (Targetint.div x y) y) (Targetint.rem x y). If y = 0, Targetint.rem x y raises Division_by_zero.

let unsigned_rem: (t, t) => t;

Same as Targetint.rem, except that arguments and result are interpreted as unsigned integers.

let succ: t => t;

Successor. Targetint.succ x is Targetint.add x Targetint.one.

let pred: t => t;

Predecessor. Targetint.pred x is Targetint.sub x Targetint.one.

let abs: t => t;

Return the absolute value of its argument.

let size: int;

The size in bits of a target native integer.

let max_int: t;

The greatest representable target integer, either 231 - 1 on a 32-bit platform, or 263 - 1 on a 64-bit platform.

let min_int: t;

The smallest representable target integer, either -231 on a 32-bit platform, or -263 on a 64-bit platform.

let logand: (t, t) => t;

Bitwise logical and.

let logor: (t, t) => t;

Bitwise logical or.

let logxor: (t, t) => t;

Bitwise logical exclusive or.

let lognot: t => t;

Bitwise logical negation.

let shift_left: (t, int) => t;

Targetint.shift_left x y shifts x to the left by y bits. The result is unspecified if y < 0 or y >= bitsize, where bitsize is 32 on a 32-bit platform and 64 on a 64-bit platform.

let shift_right: (t, int) => t;

Targetint.shift_right x y shifts x to the right by y bits. This is an arithmetic shift: the sign bit of x is replicated and inserted in the vacated bits. The result is unspecified if y < 0 or y >= bitsize.

let shift_right_logical: (t, int) => t;

Targetint.shift_right_logical x y shifts x to the right by y bits. This is a logical shift: zeroes are inserted in the vacated bits regardless of the sign of x. The result is unspecified if y < 0 or y >= bitsize.

let of_int: int => t;

Convert the given integer (type int) to a target integer (type t), module the target word size.

let of_int_exn: int => t;

Convert the given integer (type int) to a target integer (type t). Raises a fatal error if the conversion is not exact.

let to_int: t => int;

Convert the given target integer (type t) to an integer (type int). The high-order bit is lost during the conversion.

let of_float: float => t;

Convert the given floating-point number to a target integer, discarding the fractional part (truncate towards 0). The result of the conversion is undefined if, after truncation, the number is outside the range [Targetint.min_int, Targetint.max_int].

let to_float: t => float;

Convert the given target integer to a floating-point number.

let of_int32: int32 => t;

Convert the given 32-bit integer (type int32) to a target integer.

let to_int32: t => int32;

Convert the given target integer to a 32-bit integer (type int32). On 64-bit platforms, the 64-bit native integer is taken modulo 232, i.e. the top 32 bits are lost. On 32-bit platforms, the conversion is exact.

let of_int64: int64 => t;

Convert the given 64-bit integer (type int64) to a target integer.

let to_int64: t => int64;

Convert the given target integer to a 64-bit integer (type int64).

let of_string: string => t;

Convert the given string to a target integer. The string is read in decimal (by default) or in hexadecimal, octal or binary if the string begins with 0x, 0o or 0b respectively. Raise Failure "int_of_string" if the given string is not a valid representation of an integer, or if the integer represented exceeds the range of integers representable in type nativeint.

let to_string: t => string;

Return the string representation of its argument, in decimal.

let compare: (t, t) => int;

The comparison function for target integers, with the same specification as compare. Along with the type t, this function compare allows the module Targetint to be passed as argument to the functors Set.Make and Map.Make.

let unsigned_compare: (t, t) => int;

Same as Targetint.compare, except that arguments are interpreted as unsigned integers.

let equal: (t, t) => bool;

The equal function for target ints.

type repr = 
| Int32 of int32
| Int64 of int64
let repr: t => repr;

The concrete representation of a native integer.

let print: (Format.formatter, t) => unit;

Print a target integer to a formatter.
