Small issue with fixed integer formats

[manusalgueiro84]

Hi everyone,

  I have a small issue with fixed integer formats in scanf. Whenever I try to read an uint8_t, using the %hhu format, I get this warning:

warning: unknown conversion type character 'h' in format [-Wformat=]| (Seems like is not recognizing the format)

The code is:

uint8_t codigo = 0;

scanf("%hhu", &codigo);


(Using CodeBlocks 20.03 in Windows 10 x64)

That is a warning from the Compiler! Code::Blocks is not a Compiler!

Post the full build log in code tags and someone might see the problem.

Post information about your Compiler in case that matters.

Note: Adding option "-Wno-format" might disable the warning.
Project -> Build Options
Tab: Compiler Settings
Subtab: Other compiler options

Edit: Googling implies that old versions of MinGW GCC did not support "%hhu". No idea if new versions do support it.
