Humm I may be wrong but I believe that a crucial point has been overlooked by all.
In C99 'a' is not a character but an integer character constant. The type of an integer character constant is an int which on IPL32 and LP64 platforms means that sizeof('a') = 4. See C99 Section 6.4.4.4. (I believe that C++ returns 1 but I have not tested it.)

hello,
i have a problem with strlen. I have written this:
for(y=13,z=0; cInBuf!=' ';y++)
{
cBuf=cInBuf;
z++;
}
len = strlen(cBuf);
out=len/2;
fprintf(outfile,"F%i",out);
If strlen is e.g. 22, it write F22. I want to write F2F2.
How can i do this?... (5 Replies)

stddef.h(3HEAD) Headers stddef.h(3HEAD)
NAME
stddef.h, stddef - standard type definitions
SYNOPSIS
#include <stddef.h>
DESCRIPTION
The <stddef.h> header defines the following macros:
NULL
Null pointer constant.
offsetof(type, member-designator)
Integer constant expression of type size_t, the value of which is the offset in bytes to the structure member (member-designator), from
the beginning of its structure (type).
The <stddef.h> header defines the following types:
ptrdiff_t Signed integer type of the result of subtracting two pointers.
wchar_t Integer type whose range of values can represent distinct wide-character codes for all members of the largest character set
specified among the locales supported by the compilation environment: the null character has the code value 0 and each mem-
ber of the portable character set has a code value equal to its value when used as the lone character in an integer charac-
ter constant.
size_t Unsigned integer type of the result of the sizeof operator.
The implementation supports one or more programming environments in which the widths of ptrdiff_t, size_t, and wchar_t are no greater than
the width of type long. The names of these programming environments can be obtained using the confstr(3C) function or the getconf(1) util-
ity.
