Amount of Memory That Is Allocated for BOOL Arrays
Two bytes are allocated in memory for individual BOOL variables, BOOL structure members, and
BOOL union variables. However, for a BOOL array, two bytes of memory are not allocated for
each element. One bit is allocated in order for each element. For the entire array, a multiple of
two bytes of memory is allocated (including unused bits).
Therefore, the following formula gives the amount of memory that is allocated for a BOOL array.
For 1 to 16 elements, 2 bytes are allocated. For 17 to 32 elements, 4 bytes are allocated.
Specific examples of the rules for memory allocation for variables of each data type are given below.
Variables with One-Byte Alignments (e.g., BYTE)
One byte of memory is allocated for the one-byte alignment.
Example: Two consecutive BYTE variables
Variables with Two-byte Alignments (e.g., BOOL and WORD)
Two bytes of memory are allocated for the two-byte alignment.
Example: Two consecutive BOOL variables
