Bool returning value 204

[RadWayne]

I have a class that uses a Bool to store something. I have a member function that returns the value of that Bool. It wasn't working as expected so I tried printing the value of the Bool returned by the member function and I got 204.

What.might cause something like this?

It means the bool value is non zero hence, true

When you say "Bool" do you mean something different from the C++ built in bool type? And how are you printing the value? It might help if you shared the relevant parts of your code.

Normally a bool will print as 1 or 0, or possibly as "true" or "false" if you use std::cout << std::boolalpha;

    bool a;
    a = 204;
    std::cout << "a is " << a << std::endl;
    std::cout << std::boolalpha;
    std::cout << "a is " << a << std::endl;

Output:

a is 1
a is true
