QA·C Help - 2113

	2113	Default argument promotion : unsigned short promoted to unsigned int.

Arithmetic type - Integral promotion		REFERENCE - ISO:C90-6.3.2.2 Function Calls, 6.5.4.3 Function Declarators, 7.8.1 Variable argument list access macros

An expression of type unsigned short is being used as an argument in a function call and is being converted to type unsigned int according to the rules of default argument promotion.

Message 2113 will be generated if the function has not been declared or has been declared with an old style declaration. It will not be generated when default argument promotion results from a call to a function declared with a variable argument list.

A conversion of this nature will only occur if a short is the same size as an int. If it is not, message 2111 will be generated.

For example:
