Hello,
Is the endianess can be for the nibble boundaries ? Because i have defined a class, and try to access the array with a pointer of class type.
typedef unsigned char uint8;
class A{
public:
uint8 a:4;
uint8 b:4;
};
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
uint8 temp = 0xfa;
A * ptr_a;
ptr_a = (A *) &temp;
printf("%x", ptr_a->a );
}
To my surprise, a is 0x0a and not '0x0f' !. Any comments on this, will be very helpful, as i have a very big structure with access to nibble boundaries, will make it more complex for me to determine which bit goes where !!!
