Any compiler which takes 'char' as 'unsigned' ?
c, char, compiler-construction, signed, unsigned-char
Solution
GCC does. But only when compiling for platforms where an unsigned char is the convention, including ARM linux[*]. When GCC compiles for x86, the default is for char to be signed.
[*] Or at least it has been in the past. For all I know linux has switched to a different default ABI on ARM since.
Update '2013: ARM compilers (gcc, clang) for Android NDK default to `unsigned char`. The x86 and MIPS compilers default to `signed char`.
Problem
Is there any C compiler which takes the default type of char as unsigned unless explicitly mentioned by the user in the file or project settings? /Kanu_
