I want a program which tells me the size of the processor on which i am running the program. I think you missed the point: You cannot have a program that will just run on any arbitrary processor - it has to be compiled for the specific target processor. In other words: Because the Compiler has to generate code for the specific processor it must know, at compile time, what the processor is - including whether it is 8-bit, 16-bit, or whatever. i want to print size of the processor How about: #if defined _MSC_VER printf( " This is Microsoft 'C'" ); #elif defined __GNUC__ printf( " This is GCC" ); #elif defined __BORLANDC__ printf( " This is Borland C" ); #elif defined _CC51 printf( " This is the Tasking 8051 Compiler" ); #elif defined __C51__ printf( " This is the Keil C51 Compiler " ); #else #error Unsupported Compiler! #endif |

| C is not that portable! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| thanks but could u clarify | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| I think you missed the point | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Various compilers different results | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Word size - not code size? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| u r correct | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| Not quite | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Correct ! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| I found the solution, Andy , Neil please comment | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Great! Now do it in C | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Same logic for C and asm | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| No, it isn't. | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| What would be the point? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| It is worse than that | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| the whole question is silly | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| It can even get this silly... | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
