title: Comparing two Hexadecimal values in C++
body: <p>I want to compare two hexadecimal(stored in long) 
  below is my code</p>
  
  <pre><code>long constant = 80040e14;
  if(constant == 80040e14)
      cout&lt;&lt;"Success"&lt;&lt;endl;
  else
      cout&lt;&lt;"Fail!!"&lt;&lt;endl;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In this code flow control always returns to else part, can anyone please suggest how to proceed with the comparison.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
