64-bit integers CVI 8.0.0

[ChristopherPovey]

I have send a response on this forum that CVI 7.0 supports 64-bit integers (by Mr. Matthews). We run CVI 8.0.0 and the following code does not compile: #define UInt64 unsigned long long #define Int64 signed long long UInt64 temp = 0; Produces the error "Invalid use of 'long'." Can I assume that this is not true and that CVI 8.0.0 and 7 do not support 64-bit integers?

I believe that the 'long long' syntax wasn't supported until version 8.5, but you can use __int64 instead.
