If you have a struct consisting of 4 uint8_t members, it's very
likely that you don't *need* #pragma pack. There might be some
odd compiler out there that allocates more than 32 bits for such
a struct -- but that odd compiler might not support #pragma pack.
struct pixel {
uint8_t red;
uint8_t green;
uint8_t blue;
uint8_t alpha;
};
If you need to write 100% portable code, that might not be good
enough -- but you very likely don't need to write 100% portable code.
(And if you're willing to consider #pragma pack, it seems you
already know that.)
My point in suggesting an array was simply to approach that 100%
portability, but I don't think it's necessary.
