 public abstract class Structure extends java.lang.ObjectRepresents a native structure with a Java peer class. When used as a function parameter or return value, this class corresponds tostruct*. When used as a field within anotherStructure, it corresponds tostruct. The tagging interfacesStructure.ByReferenceandStructure.ByValuemay be used to alter the default behavior. Structures may have variable size, but only by providing an array field (e.g. byte[]).See the overview for supported type mappings for struct fields. Structure alignment and type mappings are derived by default from the enclosing interface definition (if any) by using Native.getStructureAlignment(java.lang.Class<?>)andNative.getTypeMapper(java.lang.Class<?>). Alternatively you can explicitly provide alignment, field order, or type mapping by calling the respective Structure functions in your subclass's constructor.Structure fields corresponding to native struct fields must be public. If your structure is to have no fields of its own, it must be declared abstract. You must annotate the class with Structure.FieldOrderor implementgetFieldOrder(), whichever you choose it must contain the field names (Strings) indicating the proper order of the fields. If you chose to implementgetFieldOrder()notice that when dealing with multiple levels of subclasses of Structure, you must add to the list provided by the superclassgetFieldOrder()the fields defined in the current class.In the past, most VMs would return them in a predictable order, but the JVM spec does not require it, so getFieldOrder()is now required to ensure JNA knows the proper order).Structure fields may additionally have the following modifiers: - volatileJNA will not write the field unless specifically instructed to do so via- writeField(String). This allows you to prevent inadvertently overwriting memory that may be updated in real time on another (possibly native) thread.
- finalJNA will overwrite the field via- read(), but otherwise the field is not modifiable from Java. Take care when using this option, since the compiler will usually assume all accesses to the field (for a given Structure instance) have the same value. This modifier is invalid to use on J2ME.
 NOTE: Strings are used to represent native C strings because usage of char *is generally more common thanwchar_t *. You may provide a type mapper (example here)if you prefer to use String in place ofWStringif your native code predominantly useswchar_t *.NOTE: In general, instances of this class are not synchronized. - Author:

- m- Memory to with which to back this- Structure.
 
 -

- m- Native pointer
- offset- offset from pointer to use
- force- ByValue structures normally ignore requests to use a different memory offset; this input is set- truewhen setting a ByValue struct that is nested within another struct.

ensureAllocatedprotected void ensureAllocated() Ensure this memory has its size and layout calculated and its memory allocated.
 - 
allocateMemoryprotected void allocateMemory() Attempt to allocate memory if sufficient information is available. Returns whether the operation was successful.

getPointerpublic Pointer getPointer() Return aPointerobject to this structure. Note that if you use the structure's pointer as a function argument, you are responsible for callingwrite()prior to the call andread()after the call. These calls are normally handled automatically by theFunctionobject when it encounters aStructureargument or return value. The returned pointer may not have meaning forStructure.ByValuestructure representations.- Returns:

 For extremely large or complex structures where you only need to access a small number of fields, you may see a significant performance benefit by avoiding automatic structure reads and writes. If auto-read and -write are disabled, it is up to you to ensure that the Java fields of interest are synched before and after native function calls viaboolean auto = ...; setAutoRead(auto); setAutoWrite(auto);readField(String)andwriteField(String,Object).
