_bittest, _bittest64
Microsoft Specific
Generates the bt instruction, which examines the bit in position b of address a, and returns the value of that bit.
unsigned char _bittest(
long *a,
long b
);

__int64 *a,
__int64 b
);
Parameters
[in] a
A pointer to the memory to examine.[in] b
The bit position to test.
Return Value
The bit at the position specified.
