Improve Variant documentation. Change-Id: Ic25729c8bf2e71cdfcf54e3a2794664b400723bd
This library provides a GVariant parser in pure Java.
The foundational class is Decoder.
Instances of Decoder read a given concrete subtype of Value from a ByteBuffer. The class also contains factory methods to create those instances.
The various subclasses of Decoder together implement the GVariant serialization specification.
To parse a GVariant value of type "a(si)", which is an array of pairs of String and int, you can use the following code:
record ExampleRecord(String s, int i) {}
var decoder =
Decoder.ofArray(
Decoder.ofStructure(
ExampleRecord.class,
Decoder.ofString(StandardCharsets.UTF_8),
Decoder.ofInt().withByteOrder(ByteOrder.LITTLE_ENDIAN)));
byte[] bytes = ...;
List<ExampleRecord> example = decoder.decode(ByteBuffer.wrap(bytes));
