From: Sonn Ygg Date: 2007-06-26T03:02:20+09:00 Subject: could anyone help me in the question, thanks? In network application, we need to fill some fields of protocol header like below (in C): struct hdr { unsinged short ver; unsinged char len; unsinged char flg; ...... }; int main(void) { struct hdr hh; hh.ver = 0x1; hh.len = 0x2; hh.flg = 0x3; ... send(sock, &hh, sizeof(hh), 0); ... } How could I do above in Ruby because I don't find how to specify the data type of variables or the address of variables in Ruby so far? I will deeply appreciate if anyone gives me any hint about it? Thanks a lot. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
