The typeinfo crate provides access to type information for POD (plain old data)
types at runtime.
Defining reflectable struct types only requires wrapping the struct definition in
the def! macro:
```rust
extern crate typeinfo; use typeinfo::TypeInfo;
def! { #[derive(Debug)] pub struct Color { r: u16, g: u16, b: u16, }
#[derive(Debug)]
#[repr(packed)]
pub struct Palette {
monochrome: bool,
colors: [Color; 16]
}
}
fn main() { println!("{:#?}", Palette::type_info()); } ```
Output (whitespace formatted):
rust
Compound([
Field { ty: Bool, name: "monochrome", offset: 0 },
Field {
ty: Array(
Compound([
Field { ty: UInt16, name: "r", offset: 0 },
Field { ty: UInt16, name: "g", offset: 2 },
Field { ty: UInt16, name: "b", offset: 4 }
], 6),
16),
name: "colors",
offset: 1
}
], 97)
