    The syntax is simple enough, if you understand struct.
    Code:
    struct foo {
      unsigned int myfield:14;
    };
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    FYI, the sizeof() a struct foo shows you the size of an unsigned int ( which on my system is 4 (bytes)).
