Working backwards from system-structures like the QuickTime and QuickDraw structs,
it clearly is possible to build structures that have identical in- memory representations
with both compilers. My suggestion is to copy the QuickTime header syntax for
CodeWarrior/XCode.

I'm doing some work on an app that has been broken into two apps. App one writes files to disk, app two reads those files in from disk and does some batch processing. App 1 is written with MacApp and uses Codewarrior. App 2 is the one I'm working on and is a cocoa app. I've been working on moving the cocoa app from codewarrior to XCode as step 1 of migrating to support the future Intel macs and I've run into an issue.

The first part of the file is a header that is created by simply block writing a struct to disk. Not the best approach for sure, but that's what I have to work with at this point. The struct has a bunch of shorts/long/bool/etc. The problem I'm running into is the struct is a different length in XCode as it is in codewarror. And setting pragma align statements to adjust it not only isn't helping, but is actually giving me different results on the different compilers.

I've tried

#pragma align=power
#pragma align=mac68k

each followed by

#pragma align=reset

at the end of the structure definitions and get different size structs. Clearly the code to read and write the file will eventually have to be rewritten to handle endian issues, but for now at least, I'd like to find a way to get the same size struct on both compilers. Is there something I'm perhaps overlooking?
