No, the compiler will use one of the available int sizes (again depending on CPU) and just test for zero/not-zero. It will not try to use each bit separately. For arrays of bool, GCC uses a char for each bool. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
