but here what is the size ofthe structure?
my doubt is unsigned short is 16 bits.
but the items of the structure demands 22 bits.
so ifthe structure sizeis 32 bits (2 shorts)
can you explain howthe memory is allocated to the items?

the instanciated structure will be 1 Byte minimum !!!

struct MyOneBitStruct {
   unsigned nOneBitMember  : 1;    //  (1 bits)

size_t nOneBitStructSize = sizeof(MyOneBitStruct);

can we make variable of less than a byte

CString orig("Hello, World!");
    wcout << orig << " (CString)" << endl;

    // Convert to a char*
    const size_t newsize = 100;
    char nstring[newsize];
    strcpy(nstring, orig);
    strcat(nstring, " (char *)");
    cout << nstring << endl;
