c++ - finding struct offset

I was recently asked this question, and I couldn't figure out howto do it.

basically given a struct, finding the byte offset for each member.

struct a
{
char c0;
char c1;
short h;
int i;
};

the byte offset could be found in 1 line of C, how would one do it?

std::cout << "Offset of a.h: " << offsetof(a, h) << std::endl; /b
