How to declare array of structs to call elements by reference?

SystemVerilog

Hello,

I have many packed structs of the same size and I want to combine them to an array, so that I can go through all of them in a loop. When I create this array, a new instance of all structs will be created inside the array. Is it possible to do that by reference? I want to be able to address the single structs with and also without the array.

Thank you in advance.

In reply to KristofK:

SystemVerilog does not have the concept of pointers, which is what you may be thinking about from the perspective of a different programming language. It does have the concept of class objects and reafenrece, but before I spend time going into that, it might help if you explain in better detail what behavior you are trying to capture.
