Class Encoder

extends Object

Class summary

encode obj/any -> none
to-byte-array -> any
Returns the objects serialized up to this point as a byte array.
operator == other/any -> bool
Whether this object is equal to the other.
stringify -> string
Stringifies this object.

Methods

encode obj/any -> none
operator == other/any -> bool
Whether this object is equal to the other.
By default, identical is used for equality.
Inheritance
Classes overwrite this operator to get an equality specific to their needs. Equality operators often compare the type and field contents. For example:

class Pin:
  number/int

  constructor .number:

  operator == other:
    if other is not Pin: return false
    return number == other.number
A class doesn't have to follow the above format, but it must keep the operator in sync with any hash-code method. That is, if a class has a hash-code member, then the equality and hash-code must agree. If two instances are equal (a == b), then their hash codes must also be equal (a.hash-code == b.hash-code).
stringify -> string
Stringifies this object.
Inheritance
Objects that need a human-friendly string representation should overwrite this method. The default string is based on the internal class-ID.
to-byte-array -> any
Returns the objects serialized up to this point as a byte array.
