The whole point of using a union, and the whole point of adding type to the beginning of your CS and DS structures, was that they'd all have the same memory layout.

The compiler warns you since it doesn't know you built with these assumptions in mind. You can avoid the warning with a typecast if you want:

Code:
myfunc((S *)&obj);

ok that is fine

NAME

       math::fuzzy - Fuzzy comparison of floating-point numbers

SYNOPSIS

       package require Tcl  ?8.3?

       package require math::fuzzy  ?0.2?

       ::math::fuzzy::teq value1 value2

       ::math::fuzzy::tne value1 value2

       ::math::fuzzy::tge value1 value2

       ::math::fuzzy::tle value1 value2

       ::math::fuzzy::tlt value1 value2

       ::math::fuzzy::tgt value1 value2

       ::math::fuzzy::tfloor value

       ::math::fuzzy::tceil value

       ::math::fuzzy::tround value

       ::math::fuzzy::troundn value ndigits

_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The package Fuzzy is meant to solve common problems with floating-point numbers in a systematic way:

       o      Comparing  two  numbers  that  are  "supposed"  to  be identical, like 1.0 and 2.1/(1.2+0.9) is not guaranteed to give the intuitive
	      result.

       o      Rounding a number that is halfway two integer numbers can cause strange errors, like int(100.0*2.8) != 28 but 27

       The Fuzzy package is meant to help sorting out this type of problems by defining "fuzzy" comparison procedures for floating-point  numbers.
       It  does  so by allowing for a small margin that is determined automatically - the margin is three times the "epsilon" value, that is three
       times the smallest number eps such that 1.0 and 1.0+$eps canbe distinguished. In Tcl, which uses double precision  floating-point  numbers,
       this is typically 1.1e-16.

PROCEDURES

       Effectively the package provides the following procedures:

       ::math::fuzzy::teq value1 value2
	      Compares two floating-point numbers and returns 1 if their values fall within a small range. Otherwise it returns 0.

       ::math::fuzzy::tne value1 value2
	      Returns the negation, that is, if the difference is larger than the margin, it returns 1.

       ::math::fuzzy::tge value1 value2
	      Compares	two floating-point numbers and returns 1 if their values either fall within a small range or if the first number is larger
	      than the second. Otherwise it returns 0.

       ::math::fuzzy::tle value1 value2
	      Returns 1 if the two numbers are equal according to [teq] or if the first is smaller than the second.

       ::math::fuzzy::tlt value1 value2
	      Returns the opposite of [tge].

       ::math::fuzzy::tgt value1 value2
	      Returns the opposite of [tle].

       ::math::fuzzy::tfloor value
	      Returns the integer number that is lower or equal to the given floating-point number, within a well-defined tolerance.

       ::math::fuzzy::tceil value
	      Returns the integer number that is greater or equal to the given floating-point number, within a well-defined tolerance.

       ::math::fuzzy::tround value
	      Rounds the floating-point number off.

       ::math::fuzzy::troundn value ndigits
	      Rounds the floating-point number off to the specified number of decimals (Pro memorie).

       Usage:

	      if { [teq $x $y] } { puts "x == y" }
	      if { [tne $x $y] } { puts "x != y" }
	      if { [tge $x $y] } { puts "x >= y" }
	      if { [tgt $x $y] } { puts "x > y" }
	      if { [tlt $x $y] } { puts "x < y" }
	      if { [tle $x $y] } { puts "x <= y" }

	      set fx	  [tfloor $x]
	      set fc	  [tceil  $x]
	      set rounded [tround $x]
	      set roundn  [troundn $x $nodigits]

TEST CASES

       The problems that can occur with floating-point numbers are illustrated by the test cases in the file "fuzzy.test":

       o      Several test case use the ordinary comparisons, and they fail invariably to produce understandable results

       o      One test case uses [expr] without braces ({ and }). It too fails.

       The conclusion from this is that any expression should be surrounded by braces, because otherwise very awkward things  can  happen  if  you
       need accuracy. Furthermore, accuracy and understandable results are enhanced by using these "tolerant" or fuzzy comparisons.

       Note that besides the Tcl-only package, there is also a C-based version.
