__PACK is pretty evil, in my opinion. It papers over alignment issues that are rather significant in otherwise portable applications. I'd much rather see such structures defined using natural alignments (uchar_t arrays, if necessary) along with accessor functions or macros to handle the unaligned bits. It's not as though it's an issue that happens often in well-designed protocols. -- James Carlson, KISS Network <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
