Low-level Pack/Unpack API

API Reference


This low-level pack/unpack API is intended to support the higher level IPC messaging system, specifically code generated by ifgen. But it can also be used to hand-pack messages if using the Low-level Messaging API API directly.

This low-level pack/unpack API supports:

  • Packing basic types supported by the IPC system.
  • Packing reference types
  • Packing arrays of the above types
  • Packing strings. It also supports unpacking any of the above.
