Illegal in C++.  The first part of a for statement is a single statement 
(either an expression statement or a simple declaration).  To declare two 
variables with different fundamental types one needs two statements.
If you want two "local" variables, just use a new block scope:
        {
                int i ;
                char j ;
                for ( ; /*...*/ ; /*...*/ ) {
                        // ...
                }
        }
