Just for the record: after a hint from Kornel and Frank's testing we established that 1u << 31 does the trick and is supposed to work according to the Standard. 1 << 31 is legal, though, but the outcome depends on the internal representation of signed integers. I doubt, however, that Sun uses something else than two's complement, so the compiler error message is somewhat ... "unusual". Andre'
