bitsery/doc

To get the most out of Bitsery, start with the tutorial. Once you're familiar with the library consider the following reference material.

Library design:

• fundamental types
• valueNb instead of value
• flexible syntax
• serializer/deserializer functions overloads
• extending library functionality
• errors handling
• forward/backward compatibility via Growable extension
• pointers
• inheritance
• polymorphism

Core Serializer/Deserializer functions (alphabetical order):

• align (1.0.0)
• boolValue (4.0.0)
• container (1.0.0)
• ext (2.0.0)
• context (3.0.0)
• context<T> (4.1.0)
• contextOrNull<T> (4.2.0)
• object (1.0.0)
• text (1.0.0)
• value (1.0.0)

Serializer/Deserializer extensions via ext method (alphabetical order):

• BaseClass (4.2.0)
• CompactValue (4.4.0)
• CompactValueAsObject (4.4.0)
• Entropy (3.0.0)
• Growable (3.0.0)
• PointerOwner (4.1.0)
• PointerObserver (4.1.0)
• ReferencedByPointer (4.1.0)
• StdMap (3.0.0)
• StdOptional (2.0.0)
• StdQueue (4.0.0)
• StdSet (4.0.0)
• StdSmartPrt (4.3.0)
• StdStack (4.0.0)
• ValueRange (3.0.0)
• VirtualBaseClass (4.2.0)

AdapterWriter/Reader functions:

• writeBits/readBits
• writeBytes/readBytes
• writeBuffer/readBuffer
• align
• beginSession/endSession
• flush (writer only)
• writtenBytesCount (writer only)
• setError (reader only)
• getError (reader only)
• isCompletedSuccessfully (reader only)

Input adapters (buffer and stream) functions:

• read
• error
• setError
• isCompletedSuccessfully

Output adapters (buffer and stream) functions:

• write
• flush
• writtenBytesCount (buffer adapter only)

Tips and tricks:

• if you're getting static assert "please define 'serialize' function", please define serialize function in same namespace as object, or in bitsery namespace, for more info ADL.
