Depends if it has a default discriminant or not. If it has, and you
declare an object of such a discriminated type somewhere, without
initialization, you will got nearly the same, except that in Ada you will
not be allowed to change arbitrary members without regards to the actual
discriminant. If you want to change it, you will have to assign the object
as a whole, to give both the new discriminant and the value of the members
which will comes into live with it.
If on the other hand, if an object is declared using a constrained
subtype, either via initialization (this gives the object the subtype of
the value used to initialize it) at declaration or because it provides a
discriminant at the declaration (which is required if there is no default
value for the discriminant), then this have nothing in common with C's
union.
The structure of the object may be frozen or not (will not in the first
case, will be in the second case). And if it is frozen, you cannot change
it, so cannot make (and need not) make assumption about its actual
internal layout.
