Re: Manipulating C Structures using only Perl

in reply to Manipulating C Structures using only Perl

I am wondering if there is any way to write data to a C structure in memory, knowing the address of the structure, using only Perl functions, modules, etc.

I don't think Perl-only functions allow you to write to arbitrary memory locations. You'd need XS for that.
