If I understand you right, you mean a variation of this:
struct Packet { ubyte[] payload; }
But indirections don't fly with serialized network packets.
Indirections were in the struct that was the subject of that article. Here
it is:
typedef struct ssl3_record_st
{
int type; /* type of record */
unsigned int length; /* How many bytes available */
unsigned int off; /* read/write offset into 'buf' */
unsigned char *data; /* pointer to the record data */
unsigned char *input; /* where the decode bytes are */
unsigned char *comp; /* only used with decompression -
malloc()ed */
unsigned long epoch; /* epoch number, needed by DTLS1 */
unsigned char seq_num[8]; /* sequence number, needed by DTLS1 */
} SSL3_RECORD;
No way that's a directly serialized network packet.
