Ada: Difference between revisions

Contrast this with the same functionality implemented in C. Despite being shorter in length, the register cannot be altered without using bitwise operators to manipulate the individual fields. This approach is generally considered more error-prone than using a record in Ada overlaid at the register's memory-mapped address. It is possible to define a <tt>struct</tt> type in C with bit-fields for the individual elements, however the C standard does not guarantee the layout and order of the individual fields (refer to section 6.7.2.1 paragraph 11 of the C1X standard).
