raw print of variable with bool casting: unexpected behaviour

Question

I'm trying to print an int as raw data, just for curiosity, by casting the variable pointer to a bool one and incrementing the pointer "sizeof(int) * 8" times but I don't get the expected behaviour. can you explain me why? what am I missing?

this is my code:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdio>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    int integer = 0;
    int *puntInt = 0;
    bool *puntBool = 0;
    puntInt = &integer;
    for (int j = 0; j < 100; j++)
    {
        integer = j;
        puntBool = (bool*) puntInt;
        printf("%02d => ", integer);
        for(unsigned int i = 0; i < (sizeof(int) * 8); i++)
        {
            printf("%d", (*puntBool ? 1 : 0));
            puntBool++;
        }
        printf("\n");
    }
   getchar();
   return 0;
}

and this is my output:

00 => 00000000100011111100111111000000

Answer 1

A char is the smallest addressable unit, you can't go any lower than that in C/C++.
Printing the value that puntBool holds:

for(unsigned int i = 0; i < (sizeof(int) * 8); i++)
{
        //printf("%d", (*puntBool ? 1 : 0));
        printf("%p\n",puntBool++);

}

gives me:

0xbfbb7d80
0xbfbb7d81
0xbfbb7d82
0xbfbb7d83
0xbfbb7d84
0xbfbb7d85
0xbfbb7d86
0xbfbb7d87
0xbfbb7d88
0xbfbb7d89
0xbfbb7d8a
0xbfbb7d8b

So, you bool* is esentially acting as a char* and that's why your result is not as expected.

Answer 2

bool is not just 1 bit type. Its size is 1 byte.
