Hi,

I like to know which is the best way to reserve a static
buffer with a memory alignment.

Example: I like to have an 1k buffer aligned at a 4 byte
'boundary':

--------8<-------------

#define patchbytes 3	// alignment - 1

unsigned char buffer[1024+patchbytes];
unsigned char* realbuffer = buffer+patchbytes & 0xFFFC;

--------8<-------------

But I do not like the extra pointer and the 3 bytes wasted
memory...
Suggestions for a better method?

Regards
chrisker
