I've got a simple struct:
struct Chnk
{ ulong id;
char[20] wrd;
ubyte length;
... <--various utility functions and constructors
}
That I'm trying to write to a file. I want to use an unformatted
read/write because I want this to be a random access file.
But when I try to cast a Chnk to a ubyte[], I get an error, and when I
try to to!ubyte[] it I get a slightly different error:: Error: template
instance isRawStaticArray!() does not match template declaration
isRawStaticArray(T, A...)
I don't want to copy it twice each time I read or write it, as I would
if, e.g., I used OutBuffer. How should I approach this? Do I need to
use fread/fwrite? I'm sure I used to be able to pass a pointer and
length, but I can't find that option anymore.
