9 ---------------------------------------
11 Use std::string to represent array of characters.
13 Use int32_t, int16_t and int8_t (and their unsigned couter parts) instead of
14 int, short and char, respectively, when the variable or constant MUST have a
15 specific size (e.g. like in the protocol headers). This documents that the
16 variable have the given number of bits.
18 Use std::size_t for regular integer numbers that do not require any specific
19 size. Thus leaving the size difinition to the platform.
