Bit access in keil C51

[hithesh123]

I am using C8051F120 MCU with Keil IDE.
The MCU has some bit addressable registers.

How do I store a variable in one of these registers? is it bdata?
How do I access the bits?

I tried unsigned int bdata mydata;

and then tried using mydata^x , where x is the bit field(0-7). But this doesn't work.

Bit accessible registers mean to those registers regards to uc unit... They are some SFRs. What you expect is a variable as a bit accessible. bdata is a data type which is used for bit addressable...

if you want to access bit in keil use declaration as
for single bit access

bit variable_name;

for bit address space is use for variable of byte then

bdata unsigned char variable name;

and you can use sbit to aces them, more on Bit Addressing...
