In java, there is a constant for the max value of Long. Such as:
long minBillId = Long.MAX_VALUE
Is there a constant for the max value of long or int in Obj-C?
long: The long data type is a 64-bit signed two's complement integer. It has a minimum value of -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 and a maximum value of 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (inclusive).
The int type in Java can be used to represent any whole number from -2147483648 to 2147483647. Why those numbers? Integers in Java are represented in 2's complement binary and each integer gets 32 bits of space.
long: The long data type is a 64-bit two's complement integer. The signed long has a minimum value of -263 and a maximum value of 263-1.
If you import limits.h  you can call LONG_MAX
For reference this site shows how to get the max for all types as such:
#import <limits.h>  // ... NSLog(@"CHAR_MIN:   %c",   CHAR_MIN); NSLog(@"CHAR_MAX:   %c",   CHAR_MAX); NSLog(@"SHRT_MIN:   %hi",  SHRT_MIN);    // signed short int   NSLog(@"SHRT_MAX:   %hi",  SHRT_MAX); NSLog(@"INT_MIN:    %i",   INT_MIN); NSLog(@"INT_MAX:    %i",   INT_MAX); NSLog(@"LONG_MIN:   %li",  LONG_MIN);    // signed long int NSLog(@"LONG_MAX:   %li",  LONG_MAX); NSLog(@"ULONG_MIN not defined, it's always zero: %lu", 0);   NSLog(@"ULONG_MAX:  %lu",  ULONG_MAX);   // unsigned long int NSLog(@"LLONG_MIN:  %lli", LLONG_MIN);   // signed long long int NSLog(@"LLONG_MAX:  %lli", LLONG_MAX); NSLog(@"ULLONG_MIN not defined, it's always zero: %llu", 0);   NSLog(@"ULLONG_MAX: %llu", ULLONG_MAX);  // unsigned long long int INT_MAX should resolve to 2147483647
This:
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>  int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {     NSInteger foo = INT_MAX;     NSLog(@"foo: %li", foo);  // li because 64 bit OSX cmd line app      return 0; } Outputs:
2012-03-18 13:58:54.509 Craplet[51324:707] foo: 2147483647   NSLog(@"INT_MIN:    %i",   INT_MIN);
  NSLog(@"INT_MAX:    %i",   INT_MAX);
  NSLog(@"LONG_MIN:   %li",  LONG_MIN); 
  NSLog(@"LONG_MAX:   %li",  LONG_MAX);
