Perhaps your putchar sign-extends even if you explicitly cast the character.
Try ignoring the return value from putchar() completely.
If printf("[%d]\n", putchar((int)(unsigned char)255)); shows -1, you've
got a major stdio bug.
forgive my ignorance - i'm not a programmer - how exactly do i generate
output from the above? i tried dumping that expression into a file called
'code.c' and running gcc on it, but i get
code.c:1: parse error before string constant
code.c:1: parse error before numeric constant
again - no programming smarts here, just an administrator.
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("[%d]\n", putchar((int)(unsigned char)255));
}
