Handle C typedef on different platform using NativeCall

Question

Is there a convenient way handle C typedef which may have different value on various platform ?

For example

#if defined(_WIN32)
    #define foo_t int32_t
#elif defined(_WIN64)
    #define foo_t int64_t
#else
    #define foo_t long
#endif

void handle_foo(foo_t* in) {
    ...
}

Currently I am handle this in Perl 6 like this

sub handle_foo32(int32 is rw) is native(Str) { * }
sub handle_foo64(int64 is rw) is native(Str) { * }
sub handle_foo00(long  is rw) is native(Str) { * }

sub handle-foo(Int $in) {
    if $*DISTRO.is-win {
        given $*KERNEL.bits {
            when 32 {
                handle_foo32(my int32 $ = $in);
            }
            when 64 {
                handle_foo64(my int64 $ = $in);
            }
        }
    } else {
        handle_foo00(my long $ = $in);
    }
}

Answer 1

Perhaps the most direct translation is to use constant to introduce a new symbol, computed at compile time.

my constant foo_t = do if $*DISTRO.is-win {
    given $*KERNEL.bits {
        when 32 { int32 }
        when 64 { int64 }
    }
} else {
    long
}

A constant bound to a type object acts just like a type, and can be used in the signature.

sub handle_foo(foo_t is rw) is native { * }
