c - for (unsigned char i = 0; i<=0xff; i++) produces infinite loop

Why does the following c code end up in an infinite loop?

for(unsigned char i = 0; i <= 0xff; i++){}

It is the same result with:

for(unsigned char i = 0; i <= 0xff; ++i){}

In which way do I have to modify the code, to get it working as expected (without using int or unsigned int datatype)?

If you really need to use unsigned char then you can use

unsigned char i = 0;
do {
    // ... 
} while(++i);

When an arithmetic operation on an unsigned integer breaks its limits, the behaviour is well defined. So this solution will process 256 values (for 8-bit unsigned char).
