I know Daniel mentioned that bitfields aren't exactly portable, but how portable are they? I have a project in mind to revamp the flag system of CircleMUD to allow *much* easier addition of extra flags. (You'll still have to convert the pfile though.) I have two different approaches in mind, one in bitfields, one with bitvectors, both seem the same in terms of complexity. Will be a really cool change.... -- George Greer - Me@Null.net | Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity http://www.van.ml.org/~greerga | is not thus handicapped. -- Elbert Hubbard +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
