"""A simple module for declaring C-like structures.
Example usage:
>>> # Declare a struct type by specifying name, field formats and field names.
... # Field formats are the same as those used in the struct module.
... import cstruct
>>> NLMsgHdr = cstruct.Struct("NLMsgHdr", "=LHHLL", "length type flags seq pid")
>>>
>>>
>>> # Create instances from tuples or raw bytes. Data past the end is ignored.
... n1 = NLMsgHdr((44, 32, 0x2, 0, 491))
>>> print n1
NLMsgHdr(length=44, type=32, flags=2, seq=0, pid=491)
>>>
>>> n2 = NLMsgHdr("\x2c\x00\x00\x00\x21\x00\x02\x00"
... "\x00\x00\x00\x00\xfe\x01\x00\x00" + "junk at end")
>>> print n2
NLMsgHdr(length=44, type=33, flags=2, seq=0, pid=510)
>>>
>>> # Serialize to raw bytes.
... print n1.Pack().encode("hex")
2c0000002000020000000000eb010000
>>>
>>> # Parse the beginning of a byte stream as a struct, and return the struct
... # and the remainder of the stream for further reading.
... data = ("\x2c\x00\x00\x00\x21\x00\x02\x00"
... "\x00\x00\x00\x00\xfe\x01\x00\x00"
... "more data")
>>> cstruct.Read(data, NLMsgHdr)
(NLMsgHdr(length=44, type=33, flags=2, seq=0, pid=510), 'more data')
