msgpack::object is a kind of variant type. The internal type of the msgpack::object is corresponding to the msgpack format. Here is the list of types.
MessagePack type | msgpack-c type |
---|---|
nil | msgpack::type::NIL |
boolean | msgpack::type::BOOLEAN |
uint | msgpack::type::POSITIVE_INTEGER |
int | msgpack::type::NEGATIVE_INTEGER |
float 32 | msgpack::type::FLOAT32 |
float 64 | msgpack::type::FLOAT64 |
str | msgpack::type::STR |
bin | msgpack::type::BIN |
ext | msgpack::type::EXT |
array | msgpack::type::ARRAY |
map | msgpack::type::MAP |
You can get the type of msgpack::object
via type
member variable.
If the type of msgpack::object is array or map, the object has children. So msgpack::object is a composite structure.
When the type of msgpack::object is str, bin, or ext, the msgpack::object might have a reference of external memory.
When you use msgpack::unpacker, msgpack::object_handle manages all allocated memories. Treat msgpack::object_handle as a smart pointer.
When you use msgpack::unpack() function without unpack_referenc_func, msgpack::object_handle manages all allocated memories. If you give a custom unpack_referenc_func that returns true, you need to keep the lifetime of the data that you passed to msgpack::unpack() while the unpacked msgpack::object_handle exists.
When you unpack msgpack format data, you get msgpack::object from msgpack::object_handle. Then you get various types values from msgpack::object. If you want to convert to custom types from msgpack::object, see adaptor.
You can create a msgpack::object from a various type value using the following constructor. If you want to create a msgpack::object from a custom type, see https://github.com/redboltz/msgpack-c/wiki/v2_0_cpp_adaptor#object and https://github.com/redboltz/msgpack-c/wiki/v2_0_cpp_adaptor#object_with_zone
template <typename T>
object(const T& v, zone& z);
You need pass a zone. When the object contains array and/or map, child objects are allocated in the zone. A value that has the type corresponding to str and bin, the contents of the value is copied to the zone with one exception. The exception is msgpack::type::raw_ref. When you call msgpack::object constructor with raw_ref as follows:
msgpack::object obj(msgpack::type::raw_ref(data, size), zone);
The data is NOT copied to the zone.
