How can I insert C structures that have character pointers into DBD file

Question

Hello~
I am changing from a file system I made into DBD.
And I had no choice to convert structures that have character point members
to insert them into the DBD file
for examble,
If there is a structure as below
typedef struct
int IndexKey;
int groupID;
char* name;
char* pNum;
char* pAddr;
char* pMemo;
} TsomeRec;
I made a structure to convert as below
typedef struct
int IndexKey;
int groupID;
char name[MAX_NAME_LEN];
char pNum[MAX_NUM_LEN];
char pAddr[MAX_ADDR_LEN];
char pMemo[MAX_MEMO_LEN];
} TsomeRec2;
But, there are too many structures to convert.
So, I am seeking for the most efficient way to insert these structures into DBD files, considering Performance.
Frankly speaking, I'am not proficient.
please describe as specific as possible.
Thank you~

Hi,
Review the documentation section title Using C Structures with DB, in particular the subsection called C Structures with Pointers. It will explain the way to store structures that have pointers.
