Getting the size of Class

[deba]

Suppouse you have given a datatype say X in C.
I want to know how to get the size of the datatype without declaring
a varriable or pointer of that type.And ofcourse without using sizeof
operator.

would you want to use the operator specifically
designed to solve your exact problem ?
Tshh
