6.4 and 6.5 with respect to unnamed bit fields? - gs - 27-04-2010

Do rules #6.4 and 6.4 apply to unnamed bit fields? I would think, since the such fields are unnamed, one would not easily access them.

Yes both rules apply to unnamed bit fields.

A future version of MISRA C may relax these rules with respect to unnamed bit fields.
