The \var{integer} type maps to the smallint type in the default
|
|
|
\fpc mode. It maps to either a longint or int64 in either Delphi or ObjFPC
|
|
|
mode. The \var{cardinal} type is currently always mapped to the

-longword type.

+longword type. The definition of the \var{cardinal} and \var{integer}
|
|
|

+underlying target architecture.
