Depending on Endian-ness and other things, printf may not encounter a zero (NUL) byte in an int = 1. This would say stop printing. I'd say printf() kept on into la-la land. segfault.

Try this something like hack and please don't use void main Smilie It will get revenge on you sooner or later.
Code:
int main( )
{
    int Index=0xff;
    char *type = (char *) &Index;
    int i=0;
    for(i=0;i<sizeof(int); i++)
    {
         printf("%d ", *type++);
    }
    printf("\n");
    return 0;
}

Assuming this is what you are trying to do. ASCII 1 doesn't display on most terminals.

int *ptr + max possible value

From reading my C book, Im aware that the integers have a maximum value which depends on what type of processor you are using (since they use 16-bit or 32-bit instructions).

NAME
vhdlablvector - gives the index and the name of a vectorized name. ORIGIN
This software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in Paris, France. Web : http://asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/ E-mail : alliance-users@asim.lip6.fr SYNOPSYS
#include "abl101.h" char *vhdlablvector( Name, Index ) char *Name; long *Index; PARAMETERS
Name A vectorized name. Index A pointer to long. DESCRIPTION
vhdlablvector searches the index of a vectorized name, and the vector's name. RETURN VALUE
If Name is a vectorized name, vhdlablvector returns the vector's name using namealloc, and its index throw Index. Otherwise, it returns a null pointer. EXAMPLE
#include "abl101.h" long Index; char *Name; Name = vhdlablvector( "vec 2", &Index ); /* displays Name:vec, Index:2 */ printf( "Name:%s, Index:%d0, Name, Index ); SEE ALSO
abl(1), ablvhdlname(3). BUG REPORT
This tool is under development at the ASIM department of the LIP6 laboratory. We need your feedback to improve documentation and tools. ASIM
