Issue ID: 21134
Summary: time_t should probably be defined as a 64-bit type on
x86-64
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: druntime
Assignee: nobody at puremagic.com
Reporter: andrej.mitrovich at gmail.com
https://github.com/dlang/druntime/blob/349d63750d55d078426d4f433cba512625f8a3a3/src/core/sys/windows/stdc/time.d#L42
This definition seems to have remained unchanged since at least 2008 and
probably older:
https://github.com/dlang/druntime/blob/6837c0cd426f7e828aec1a2bdc941ac9b722dd14/import/stdc/time.d#L49
This is around the time x64 Windows originally started getting released.
But nowadays MSDN says that `time_t` defaults to being a 64-bit type:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/time-time32-time64?view=vs-2019
> time is a wrapper for _time64 and **time_t is, by default, equivalent to __time64_t**.
