HDF5ers,
When creating compound types, I rely on the HOFFSET macro:
if (H5Tinsert(typeid, LIQUOR, HOFFSET(struct s2, i2),
H5T_NATIVE_INT) < 0) ERR;
I see that HOFFSET, in turn, is just using the C macro offsetof.

internal padding of structs is platform dependent.
Is this true? Can HOFFSET give me one answer on one machine, and
another on another machine, or with a different compiler?
Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Ed
