^ ASN.1 has X.681 (Information Object System), X.682 (Constraints), and X.683 (Parameterization) that allow for the precise specification of open types where the types of values can be identified by integers, by OIDs, etc. OIDs are a standard format for globally unique identifiers, as well as a standard notation ("absolute reference") for ...
Flow diagram. In computing, serialization (or serialisation, also referred to as pickling in Python) is the process of translating a data structure or object state into a format that can be stored (e.g. files in secondary storage devices, data buffers in primary storage devices) or transmitted (e.g. data streams over computer networks) and reconstructed later (possibly in a different computer ...
A list containing the string "bencode" and the integer -20 is encoded as l7:bencodei-20ee. Dictionaries are encoded as d<pairs>e. Begins with d and ends with e. Contains key-value pairs. Keys are byte strings and must appear in lexicographical order. Each key is immediately followed by its value, which can be any bencoded type. Examples:
The format is best suited for small data chunks that don't exceed a few megabytes and can be loaded/sent into a memory right away and therefore is not a streamable format. [9] The library doesn't provide compression out of the box. The format also isn't well supported in non–object-oriented languages (e.g. Fortran). [10]
RFC 8746 defines tags 64–87 to encode homogeneous arrays of fixed-size integer or floating-point values as byte strings. The tag 55799 is allocated to mean "CBOR data follows". This is a semantic no-op , but allows the corresponding tag bytes d9 d9 f7 to be prepended to a CBOR file without affecting its meaning.
This is a list of hash functions, including cyclic redundancy checks, checksum functions, and cryptographic hash functions. This list is incomplete ; you can help by adding missing items . ( February 2024 )
FlatBuffers is a free software library implementing a serialization format similar to Protocol Buffers, Thrift, Apache Avro, SBE, and Cap'n Proto, primarily written by Wouter van Oortmerssen and open-sourced by Google. It supports “zero-copy” deserialization, so that accessing the serialized data does not require first copying it into a ...
The XML format supports non-ASCII characters and storing NSValue objects (which, unlike GNUstep's ASCII property list format, Apple's ASCII property list format does not support). [10] Since XML files, however, are not the most space-efficient means of storage, Mac OS X 10.2 introduced a new format where property list files are stored as binary ...
