i guess you want to serialize this data between 2 diferents CPUs families.

I think ADA only thought an automatic solution for mapped records.

You have two solutions.

First is really ugly: Put that type into a field of a single field mapped record.

Sencod is also ugly: Swap by your self the 4 bytes of this 32 bits type. Gnat have for example gnat.Byte_Swapping.Swap4 library to do it.

Regards.
