Overview
Used to construct C classes (CUnion, CStruct, etc)
Importer#struct and Importer#union wrap this functionality in an easy-to-use manner.

Class Method Details
.create(klass, types, members) (mod_func)
Construct a new class given a C:
-
class
klass
(CUnion, CStruct, or other that provide an #entity_class) -

(Fiddle::TYPE_INT, TYPE_SIZE_T, etc., see the C types constants) -

Importer#struct and Importer#union wrap this functionality in an easy-to-use manner.
Example:
require 'fiddle/struct'
require 'fiddle/cparser'
include Fiddle::CParser
types, members = parse_struct_signature(['int i','char c'])
MyStruct = Fiddle::CStructBuilder.create(Fiddle::CUnion, types, members)
obj = MyStruct.allocate
