Problem with %lld on Windows

Question

Why does this code:

#include 

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    printf(\"%lld\\n\", 4294967296LL);
}

emit this for Wind

Answer 1

This is because Visual Studio C++ 2003 and earlier do not support %lld. But this code will work:

#include 

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    printf("%I64d\n", 4294967296LL);
}
