I don't see why that code wouldn't work, as objective-c is a variation
of the c language and can use of all of it's standard libraries.
That said its not a very good idea, because storing the raw
representation from memory will cause incompatibilty across
architechtures, as well as with cocoa data types.

In C, I would just define a struct
typedef struct _mytype {

FILE *fp;
int i;

fp = fopen(<filename>, "rb");
i = fread(fp, sizeof(MyType), 1);
while (<some condition based on what was read in>)
{
/* Process one record... */

i = fread(fp, sizeof(MyType), 1);

fclose(fp);

What's the ObjC (OO) recommended methodology for this now? (for just
a Core Foundation tool)
