[edlug] OT: Linux-Windows datastructure exchange C++
Apologies for the off-topic side to this question.
Hope someone can help with the following:
I have a Linux app coded in c++, which sends data-structures to UDP
broadcast.
The data-structures have __attribute__ ((PACKED)) to prevent word
alignment.
I have a Windows app (C++ VS.NET) to receive these data-structures but
i can seem to get the __attribute__ ((PACKED)) to work and consequently
the data is skewed.
If anyone has come across this problem before and able to provide a clue
it would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Paul
