Strange warnings when compiling CVS...

[Michael]

No.

EDIT:

Slightly longer answer:
Technically, yes, but
- it is a lot more complicated
- you may have to create a temporary object (I am not sure if you can trick the compiler to do it on a pointer)
- you still must #undef offsetof, so you use preprocessor commands either way
- you need a different calling convention, meaning you have to rewrite the existing code
- you have additional constraints that offsetof has not (so it may not always work)
- it is still a hack

Thank you very much for the longer answer...I just was wondering why .

Yes, then I agree with you. In such a case, the use of a macro seems to be a good solution.

Best wishes,
Michael

I never committed that hack to SVN. 
Yiannis wanted to test it for a while first, he'll eventually add it if it works.

Seems to work fine, so it's back in HEAD.
