NAME

structs_type_float, structs_type_double —

structs types for floating point values

LIBRARY

PDEL Library (libpdel, -lpdel)

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/types.h>

#include
  <pdel/structs/structs.h>

#include
  <pdel/structs/type/float.h>

extern const struct structs_type structs_type_float;
extern const struct structs_type structs_type_double;

DESCRIPTION

These are structs(3) types for floating point values stored in variables of type float and double.

The ASCII form of these types is as produced by printf(3) using the %g format.

HISTORY

The PDEL library was developed at Packet Design, LLC. http://www.packetdesign.com/

BUGS

These types do not correct for byte-order in the binary representation. Therefore, their binary representations are not necessarily byte-order independent.
