beginner question
PostPosted: Sun Oct 07, 2012 12:03 pm     Reply with quote
I am wondering what is that mean?
Code:
int variable:1;

What does the ":1" after the variable mean?
Thanks in advance!

Generally that indicates the number of bits to use for that variable - in your case, 1 bit. See the users manual for "Data Definitions - special types" for more examples (page 45 in my copy of the manual).
