4 years ago Ok nevermind - found!
I was using mpack_writer_bytes instead of bin inside a map. Currently this works:
mpack_start_map( &writer, 1 ); mpack_write_cstr( &writer, "init" ); mpack_write_bin( &writer, (const char*)stbds_header( test_array ), sizeof( stbds_array_header ) ); mpack_finish_map( &writer );
this is a great news. I can serialize trivial structs as a binary if I need.
Leaving this post for anybody else interested!
Hello everyone, more than an issue this is me trying to understand how to use this fantastic library!
I am experimenting with it and am trying to serialize data - in this case a simple 'stretchy buffer' like stb_ds array. It just contains an header and the data all in contiguous memory.
I was thinking to first serialize the header as a blob and then for each element serialize the containing type.
I am finding hard to mix binary and map - what is a suggested way of using this API ? Tried searching around the web, but mixing binaries and trees does not seem possible.
What is the best way of handling this ?
Thank you!
