I don't know about about Metal C, but if you use regular C with
optimization, and don't use a variable, the compiler simly won't generate
any code to create or initialize it. Perhaps you could use a program kike:
int main() {
unsigned short shorttype;
int len=sizeof(shorttype);
return len;
}
But, then again, you didn't show us the entire program.
