.TH TYPE_MIN 3 libsimple
.SH NAME
TYPE_MIN \- get smallest value for an integer type

.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <libsimple.h>

#ifndef TYPE_MIN
# define TYPE_MIN(type) /* implementation omitted */
#endif
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR TYPE_MIN ()
macro assumes
.I type
is an integer type and expands to the smallest value
that can be stored in the
.IR TYPE ,
as a constant expression; however it is not suitable for
.BR #if .
.PP
The
.IB <libsimple.h>
heading contains macro constants, using the
.BR TYPE_MIN ()
macro, for the minimum value for multiple integer types:
.BR BLKCNT64_MIN ,
.BR BLKCNT_MIN ,
.BR BLKSIZE_MIN ,
.BR CC_MIN ,
.BR CLOCKID_MIN ,
.BR CLOCK_MIN ,
.BR DEV_MIN ,
