Hi Experts, I was wondering if anyone could please tell me how to set the size of a enum type. I think by default it is long (4 bytes). I need to change it for a different size, for example to int(2 bytes). typedef enum {sun=30000, mon, tues, wed, thurs} eTest; int main(void) { printf("Size is %d",sizeof(eTest)); return 0; } right now it would print out "Size is 4". I need to configure it so that it treats enum as a 2 byte int, therefore print "Size is 2". Thanks in advance for your help Raman __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
