#121192 - the original question is \"can you define a struct Responding to: ???'s previous message |
I said:
1. since all your fields seem to be U8, instead of a structure, use a two-dimensional array, with symbolic constants (#define or enum) to access the individual fields of each sign; eg, all_signs[sign_number][SER_NUM] Erik Malund said: Not useful, it exist in two places at the sign (one) at the controller (many). The structure is transmitted between two entities, a slave has one copy the master has one for each slave. Also, this does not address the desired fixed size of 256. Ehh??? When you define the array, you define the size! Absolutely, the original question is "can you define a struct where the compiler calculate the size of the filler/pad (SDfill[]) so that the struct end up always 256 bytes long. Erik |

| Not quite clear | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| thx, but | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| Possible in theory, but the code looks strange | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| figured the dummy out myself but that is the road | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Doesn\'t have to look strange | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| got it, thanks | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Aside - structure addressing | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| which is the case in one of the instances | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
nameless struct member | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| union of structs | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
