c18 bit test

How bit manipulation is done by using C18 compiler from Microchip
I mean if i want forexample to test a certain bit in a character whether it is clear or set how to do this in C18

is there any equivalent in C for assembly instructions like BTFSS,BTFSC
etc

I'm pretty sure using logical operations and bitmasks will compile to the proper bit-test instructions.

So for instance

"if(reg&0x08)" will compile to "btfsc reg,3" or something like that.

In the same way, I think "reg |= 0x80" will compile to "bsf reg,7"

If you want to be sure, you can always use inline assembly.
