Controls the alignment of arrays within struct and class data.

This pragma is compatible with the following platform targets:

68K

PowerPC

NEC V800

Intel x86

MIPS

Embedded 68K

This option lets you choose how to align an array in a struct or class. If this option is on, the compiler aligns all array fields larger than a byte according to the setting of the Struct Alignment option. If this option is off, the compiler doesn't align array fields.

#pragma align_array_members off
struct X1 {
        char c;        // offset==0
        char arr[4];    // offset==1 (char aligned)
};

#pragma align_array_members on
#pragma align mac68k
struct X2 {
        char c;        // offset==0
        char arr[4];    // offset==2 (2-byte align)
};

#pragma align_array_members on
#pragma align mac68k4byte
struct X3 {
        char c;        // offset==0
        char arr[4];    // offset==4 (4-byte align)
};

To check whether this option is on, use __option (align_array_members), described in "Checking Options." By default, this option is off.
