bit type

Hi all,

Is it possible to print bit types using:

bit bitvalue;
bitvalue = funcReturningBitType();
sprintf(g_SIOString, "bit = %u\n", bitvalue);
String_to_serial_port(g_SIOString);

The function reads a sbit. When I do this, it prints "bit = 3" (???). What kind of bits are that!? :-)

I haven't been able to find anything in the manuals or support pages.

Regards,

'u' is a conversion specifier for 'unsigned', so to be precise:

sprintf(g_SIOString, "bit = %u\n", (unsigned)bitvalue);
or

sprintf(g_SIOString, "bit = %u\n", (bitvalue ? 1U : 0U));

Thanks Dan!

I thought the bit would be converted automatically, just like u8's etc will automatically be converted to u16's etc.

I'll give this a try.
