AW: [cffi-devel] Bitfields and defcenum
But this makes me wonder if another abstraction, say DEFBITFIELD would be useful. Something like: The more expressive, the better IMHO.
(defbitfield name (0 sym1 sym2 ...) Never thought about it. But who says bitfields will soon say "arbitrary width". Not everything is a single bit.

Yeah, I thought about that so I don't plan to place any restrictions on the mask (so the user can use numbers other than 2^n). Only restriction that might make sense is to check if it's smaller that the canonical type's size. -- Luís Oliveira luismbo (@) gmail (.) com Equipa Portuguesa do Translation Project http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/registry.cgi?team=pt
