The component _index property is long but _getcomp_index returns int

[g5t]

As seen in the code generator, the property of each component representing its position along the instrument is long valued

McCode/mcstas/src/cogen.c.in

Line 542 in c4c9421

coutf(" long _index; /* e.g. %i index in TRACE list */", index);

The _getcomp_index function finds the component which has a user-provided name and returns an int valued index.

McCode/mcstas/src/cogen.c.in

Line 1032 in c4c9421

cout("int _getcomp_index(char* compname)");

This type difference is unlikely to produce problems, but may be problematic on systems where int and long are not type aliases for the same underlying integer value type.

To alleviate any possible comparison errors, the component _index and return value for _getcomp_index should have the same type -- either int or long.

I guess we can make/should do with int... :)
