Dear all,
Perhaps it's an easy/silly question but I don't understand how it works.
(I'm working in a debian)
I have declared a structure and I'm using the "sizeof" to get the size of
this structure.
After the call I get that the total size is 64Bytes but if I get the size of
each field and I add them manually I get that it should be 61Bytes...
Anyone knows why the result is not the same?
Thanks in advance
Javi
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
typedef struct Packet{
//char transportIdentifier;
int mode;
int idPacket;
int idMessage;
int fragmentNumber;
struct sockaddr source;
struct sockaddr destination;
int length;
int totalLength;
int* groupSet;
unsigned char data[1];
};
int main (){
Packet infoPacket;
printf("Size of mode %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.mode));
printf("Size of idPacket %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.idPacket));
printf("Size of idMessage %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.idMessage));
printf("Size of fragmentNumber %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.fragmentNumber));
printf("Size of source %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.source));
printf("Size of destination %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.destination));
printf("Size of length %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.length));
printf("Size of totalLength %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.totalLength));
printf("Size of groupSet %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.groupSet));
printf("Size of data %d\n",sizeof(infoPacket.data));
printf("Total Size of infoPacket = %d or %d or
%d\n",sizeof(infoPacket),sizeof(Packet),sizeof(struct Packet));
}
Output:
Size of mode 4
Size of idPacket 4
Size of idMessage 4
Size of fragmentNumber 4
Size of source 16
Size of destination 16
Size of length 4
Size of totalLength 4
Size of groupSet 4
Size of data 1
Total Size of infoPacket = 64 or 64 or 64
