enum : char ???

[Kelvin@!!!]

In Visual Studio
we can limit the size of an enum by doing:
enum Weekday : char
{
MON, TUE, WED;
};

is that in the stardard C++ ?
or it's just an extension from microsoft?

thanks

It is a platform-specific extenstions (although it has
been proposed for inclusion in the next C++ standard).
