... or a misunderstanding on my part ?
From string "\x0CTUV", the compiler generates 0x0C 0x55 0x56 0x57 0x00
From string "\x0CABC", the compiler generates 0xCA 0x42 0x43 0x00 ... rather than the expected 0x0C 0x41 0x42 0x43 0x00
I thought the \x escape sequence in a string instructed the compiler to encode the very next two characters as a hexadecimal byte.
Am I missing something ?
The point is that you should not concern yourself with the compiler's logic - you should concern yourself with ensuring that your source text is completely unambiguous and, therefore, not subject to any misinterpretation by any compiler logic!
