Member Function Documentation

virtual void serialize ( PofWriterHandle  hOut,
Object::View  v 
) const [pure virtual]

Serialize a user type instance to a POF stream by writing its state using the specified PofWriter.

An implementation of PofSerializer is required to follow the following steps in sequence for writing out an Object of a user type:

  1. If the object is Evolvable, the implementation must set the version by calling PofWriter::setVersionId().
  2. The implementation may write any combination of the properties of the user type by using the "write" methods of the PofWriter, but it must do so in the order of the property indexes.
  3. After all desired properties of the user type have been written, the implementation must terminate the writing of the user type by calling PofWriter::writeRemainder().

Parameters:
hOut a PofWriter to use for writing the object's state
v an object to serialize

virtual Object::Holder deserialize ( PofReaderHandle  hIn  )  const [pure virtual]

Deserialize a user type instance from a POF stream by reading its state using the specified PofReader.

An implementation of PofSerializer is required to follow the following steps in sequence for reading in an object of a user type:

  1. If the object is Evolvable, the implementation must get the version by calling PofWriter::getVersionId().
  2. The implementation may read any combination of the properties of the user type by using "read" methods of the PofReader, but it must do so in the order of the property indexes.
  3. After all desired properties of the user type have been read, the implementation must terminate the reading of the user type by calling PofReader::readRemainder().

Parameters:
hIn a PofReader to use for reading the Object's state
Returns:
the deserialized user type instance
