/* Implementation */
};

//Struct variable 
aStruct exampleStruct;

// pack the struct into an NSData Object
NSData *myData = [NSData dataWithBytes:&exampleStruct length:sizeof(exampleStruct)];

// get back the the struct from the object
[myData getBytes:&exampleStruct length:sizeof(exampleStruct)];
