Subject: Is there a function in cgen for parsing short integers?

Hi,
I am porting cgen to a 16 bit architecture. The immediates are 16 bits
long. I am also parsing all hex numbers as signed numbers. Hence 0xFFFF
will be -1.
When I parse -1, I get 0xFFFFFFFF, since cgen_parse_signed_integer
accepts a long.
My problem is that since the max size of immediate can only be 16 bits,
I want to flag an error if the user enters an immediate like 0xFFFFFFFF.
However, since -1 is parsed as a long, there is no way for me to
restrict the length of the immediates to 16 bits.
Is there an equivalent function for parsing short integers as well?
Cheers,
Mehak
