it never could.
you need to do a ���special type���, who has to be something like:

YourStruct class>>initialize
�� �� �� �� Char100 := FFITypeArray ofType: #char.

fieldsDesc
�� �� �� �� ^ #(
�� �� �� �� Char100 data;
�� �� �� �� int count;
�� �� �� �� )

but then��� you want to optimise that and in field accessors, who will look something like this:

YourStruct >>data
�� �� �� �� "This method was automatically generated"
�� �� �� �� ^(FFITypeArray ofType: #char size: 100) fromHandle: (handle copyFrom: 1 to: 100)

you can change that for:

YourStruct >>data
�� �� �� �� "This method was automatically generated"
�� �� �� �� ^Char100 fromHandle: (handle copyFrom: 1 to: 100)

and same for setter.
(other way will work, but it will be suboptimal)
