Question
Are bit fields portable?

Answers

- No, Bit fields are not portable.
- Since Bit fields cannot span machine words and the number of bits in a machine word is different on different machines, a particular program using bit fields might not compile on some machines.
- One should avoid using bit fields except when the machines can directly address bits in memory and the compiler can generate code.   Your Comment
