<p>
An unsigned integer type of the result of the sizeof operator, corresponding
to the size_t type defined in C99. This type is wide enough to hold the numeric
value of a pointer, so it is usually 32bit wide on a 32bit platform and
64bit wide on a 64bit platform.
Values of this type can range from 0 to <a class="link" href="glib-Limits-of-Basic-Types.html#G-MAXSIZE:CAPS" title="G_MAXSIZE"><span class="type">G_MAXSIZE</span></a>.
