problem description:
casts struct struct type data into unsigned long
The reason why
cannot be converted is that the structural Type (including union) is not a Scalar Type; Conversion is only possible between quantitative types. Quantitative types include arithmetic types and pointer types, and arithmetic types include integer types and floating point types.
even if it’s
struct code>
in_addr type: code> p>
struct in_addr
{
in_addr_t s_addr;
};
in_addr_t 一般为 32位的unsigned int,其字节顺序为网络顺序(network byte ordered),即该无符号整数采用大端字节序。
这里即使内存中是unsigned int 类型的,也不能实际使用成unsigned int,因为整体类型不一样,c语言禁止强制转换,强制转换是'低级类型',转'高级类型';
但是可以使用指针强制将这段内存解释成unsigned int类型的数据。
即unsigned int a1 = *(unsigned int *)&(
(struct in_addr) a2);
