Hello everybody,
I have observed that when I use something like fwrite(&XXX,
sizeof(struct X),  1, file_pointer);
in  a loop, the next record is not written immediately after the first
record. The next record is aligned to an int boundary ( that is what I
observed on my m/c, where in the size of int is 4 bytes). Is there a
hard and fast rule that dictates the way alignment has to be performed
or is it dependent on the compiler or the architecture of the machine ?

Please reply ASAP
Regards Sunil
