曾经，int数据类型与编译器目标机器的寄存器大小挂钩。例如，16位系统的编译器将使用16位整数。

然而，谢天谢地，我们已经很少看到16位了，当64位开始流行时，人们更关心的是使它与旧软件兼容，32位已经存在了很长时间，对于大多数编译器来说，int只是假设为32位。

根据Visual Studio 2012中的即时窗口，Int32是int型，Int64是long型。输出如下:

sizeof(int)
4
sizeof(Int32)
4
sizeof(Int64)
8
Int32
int
    base {System.ValueType}: System.ValueType
    MaxValue: 2147483647
    MinValue: -2147483648
Int64
long
    base {System.ValueType}: System.ValueType
    MaxValue: 9223372036854775807
    MinValue: -9223372036854775808
int
int
    base {System.ValueType}: System.ValueType
    MaxValue: 2147483647
    MinValue: -2147483648

如前所述，int = Int32。为了安全起见，请确保始终使用int. minvalue /int。MaxValue在实现任何关心数据类型边界的东西时。假设. net决定int现在是Int64，那么你的代码就不那么依赖于边界了。

int是一个c#关键字，是明确的。

大多数情况下，这并不重要，但有两件事与Int32相悖:

您需要有一个“using System;”语句。使用"int"不需要Using语句。 可以定义自己的名为Int32的类(这将是愚蠢和令人困惑的)。Int总是Int的意思。

使用Int32类型需要对System或完全限定(System.Int32)的命名空间引用。我倾向于int，因为它不需要名称空间导入，因此在某些情况下减少了名称空间冲突的机会。当编译为IL时，两者之间没有区别。

虽然它们(大部分)是相同的(参见下面的一个[错误]差异)，但您绝对应该注意并应该使用Int32。

The name for a 16-bit integer is Int16. For a 64 bit integer it's Int64, and for a 32-bit integer the intuitive choice is: int or Int32? The question of the size of a variable of type Int16, Int32, or Int64 is self-referencing, but the question of the size of a variable of type int is a perfectly valid question and questions, no matter how trivial, are distracting, lead to confusion, waste time, hinder discussion, etc. (the fact this question exists proves the point). Using Int32 promotes that the developer is conscious of their choice of type. How big is an int again? Oh yeah, 32. The likelihood that the size of the type will actually be considered is greater when the size is included in the name. Using Int32 also promotes knowledge of the other choices. When people aren't forced to at least recognize there are alternatives it become far too easy for int to become "THE integer type". The class within the framework intended to interact with 32-bit integers is named Int32. Once again, which is: more intuitive, less confusing, lacks an (unnecessary) translation (not a translation in the system, but in the mind of the developer), etc. int lMax = Int32.MaxValue or Int32 lMax = Int32.MaxValue? int isn't a keyword in all .NET languages. Although there are arguments why it's not likely to ever change, int may not always be an Int32.

缺点是要多输入两个字符和[bug]。

这不会编译

public enum MyEnum : Int32
{
    AEnum = 0
}

但这将:

public enum MyEnum : int
{
    AEnum = 0
}
