在这种情况下，unsigned char和unsigned short之间有什么区别？

Question

我们需要将使用unsigned char作为位掩码的程序升级到使用unsigned short作为位掩码的较新版本。 我相信它们之间存在一些差异，因为我们的程序使用相同的逻辑与unsigned char失败变为unsigned short。 （这是我们购买的外部库。库已升级，所以我们也需要更改程序）。

Old version:
typedef struct SomeStruct {
    unsigned char   bit_mask;
#       define      SomeStruct_a_present 0x80
#       define      SomeStruct_b_present 0x40
#       define      SomeStruct_c_present 0x20
    X          x;
    Y          y;
    A          a;  /* optional; set in bit_mask
                                * SomeStruct_a_present if
                                * present */

    B          b;  /* optional; set in bit_mask
                                * SomeStruct_b_present if
                                * present */

    C          c;  /* optional; set in bit_mask
                                * SomeStruct_c_present if
                                * present */
} SomeStruct;



New version:
typedef struct SomeStruct {
    unsigned short   bit_mask;
#       define      SomeStruct_x_present 0x8000
#       define      SomeStruct_y_present 0x4000
#       define      SomeStruct_a_present 0x2000
#       define      SomeStruct_b_present 0x1000
#       define      SomeStruct_c_present 0x0800
    X          x;/* optional; set in bit_mask
                                * SomeStruct_x_present if
                                * present */
    Y          y;/* optional; set in bit_mask
                                * SomeStruct_y_present if
                                * present */
    A          a;  /* optional; set in bit_mask
                                * SomeStruct_a_present if
                                * present */

    B          b;  /* optional; set in bit_mask
                                * SomeStruct_b_present if
                                * present */

    C          c;  /* optional; set in bit_mask
                                * SomeStruct_c_present if
                                * present */
} SomeStruct;

我认为当前行存在一些问题，因为程序崩溃：

我们当前设置bit_mask的方法：

someStruct.bit_mask = SomeStruct_a_present;
someStruct.bit_mask |= SomeStruct_b_present;
someStruct.bit_mask |= SomeStruct_c_present;

Answer 1

用无符号短接这一行

someStruct.bit_mask = SomeStruct_a_present;

将位掩码的值设置为8192 ，但使用unsigned char时，该值将设置为128 。

原因：

unsigned short是2个字节长，位掩码是0010000000000000 （ 0x2000 ）但是对于unsigned char，这个值将是10000000 （ 0x80 ）。

Answer 2

 I believe there is some difference between( unsigned short and unsigned char)

sizeof（ unsigned char ）= 1个字节。

sizeof（ unsigned short ）= 2个字节。

Answer 3

“unsigned char”的长度是1 Byte，“unsigned short”的长度是2

Answer 4

从链接在这里下的修饰符部分，你可以看到，

sizeof（unsigned char）= 1 Byte and Range = 0 - > +255。

sizeof（unsigned short）= 2 Bytes and Range = 0 - > +65,535。
