I'm trying to send a simple C struct by value in a message to a remote object, but can't get it to work. Is this a known bug or limitation in the DO system? Here's an example of the struct I'm sending:

struct _Msg {
int a_fill;
char name[64];
int b_fill;
};

Does your struct use something other than PPC structure alignment?

DO only supports the processors native alignment. (If you need to force something else, like Mac68k alignment, you'll have to wrap the struct in an NSData and "decode" it by hand on the other side of the DO connection.)
