Hello, I am wondering, if there is a way to determine the alignment boundary, in bytes, i.e. the boundary suitable to allocate data of any type on a particular platform. An example would be highly appreciated.
One approach is to use malloc() to allocate some memory and see what the alignment of the returned address is:
"The malloc() function returns a pointer to a block of at least size bytes suitably aligned for any use."
