Function Documentation

get_out()

template<typename T>

T ablastr::utils::serialization::get_out

(

std::vector< char >::const_iterator &

it

)

This function extracts a variable of type T from a byte vector, at the position given by a std::vector<char> iterator. The iterator is then advanced according to the number of bytes read from the byte vector. T must be either a trivially copyable type or an std::string.

Template Parameters

T	the variable type (must be trivially copyable)

Parameters

[in,out]

it

the iterator to a byte vector

Returns

the variable extracted from the byte array

get_out_vec()

template<typename T>

std::vector< T > ablastr::utils::serialization::get_out_vec

(

std::vector< char >::const_iterator &

it

)

This function extracts an std::vector<T> from a byte vector, at the position given by a std::vector<char> iterator. The iterator is then advanced according to the number of bytes read from the byte vector. T must be either a trivially copyable type or an std::string.

Template Parameters

T	the variable type (must be trivially copyable)

Parameters

[in,out]

it

the iterator to a byte vector

Returns

the variable extracted from the byte array

put_in()

template<typename T>

void ablastr::utils::serialization::put_in	(	const T &	val,
		std::vector< char > &	vec )

This function transforms a variable of type T into a vector of chars holding its byte representation and it appends this vector at the end of an existing vector of chars. T must be either a trivially copyable type or an std::string

Template Parameters

T	the variable type

Parameters

[in]	val	a variable of type T to be serialized
[in,out]	vec	a reference to the vector to which the byte representation of val is appended

put_in_vec()

template<typename T>

void ablastr::utils::serialization::put_in_vec	(	const std::vector< T > &	val,
		std::vector< char > &	vec )

This function transforms an std::vector<T> into a vector of chars holding its byte representation and it appends this vector at the end of an existing vector of chars. T must be either a trivially copyable type or an std::string. A specialization exists in case val is a vector of chars.

Template Parameters

T	the variable type

Parameters

[in]	val	a variable of type T to be serialized
[in,out]	vec	a reference to the vector to which the byte representation of val is appended
