__attribute__((packed)) ?

[amith <amith@multitech.co.in>]

hi all,

this is off-topic, but please forgive me for this. i'am in a hurry !

/* test.c */

main()
{
       void **blkPtr __attribute__((packed)) ;
}

both
1) gcc test.c
2) arm-linux-gcc test.c  

gives me the same warning :

mine.c :3: warning:'packed' attribute ignored.

Any hints ?

cheers,
Amith

PS: even  
void __attribute__((packed)) **blkPtr;   doesnt work :-( !
