CStruct

CStruct[name,members]

is a symbolic representation of a struct.

CStruct[name]

declares a struct without specifying the contents.

CStruct[None,members]

does not give the struct a name.

Details and Options

  • SymbolicC expressions are inert; they evaluate to themselves, staying in an unevaluated form.
  • SymbolicC expressions can be converted into a C string with ToCCodeString.
  • The members of the struct can be specified with lists or with CDeclare.

Examples

Basic Examples  (1)

To use SymbolicC, you first need to load the package:

This creates a struct:

You can use CDeclare to declare the members of the struct:

You can drop the name for the struct by using a specification of None:

You can drop the contents of the struct to make an incomplete type:

You can use an incomplete type with a typedef:

You can nest a union inside a struct:
