just put #pragma pack(1) and #pragma pack() around your structure like this:

#pragma pack(1)

struct foo {
  ...
};

#pragma pack()

or use 2 or 3 or whatever as an argument for the 1st pragma if you want 2 or
3 or whatever byte alignment of structure fields.

P.S. you could use __attribute__ ((packed)), but it currently doesn't work
     with GNU C++. Allthough GNU guys claim using #pragmas is wrong, #pragma
     pack is quite portable, at least Watcom and Microsoft compilers support
     it AFAIK.
