^ The current default format is binary. ^ The "classic" format is plain text, and an XML format is also supported. ^ Theoretically possible due to abstraction, but no implementation is included. ^ The primary format is binary, but text and JSON formats are available. [8] [9]
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 ...
Toggle Data serialization formats support subsection. 2.1 JSON. 2.2 YAML. 3 References. ... See the C# example on this page for additional information.
The Protocol Buffers format provides a significantly more compact transmission format than MessagePack because it doesn't transmit field names. However, while JSON and MessagePack aim to serialize arbitrary data structures with type tags, Protocol Buffers requires a schema to define the data types.
While JSON provides a syntactic framework for data interchange, unambiguous data interchange also requires agreement between producer and consumer on the semantics of specific use of the JSON syntax. [25] One example of where such an agreement is necessary is the serialization of data types that are not part of the JSON standard, for example ...
Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) is a binary data serialization format loosely based on JSON authored by Carsten Bormann and Paul Hoffman. [a] Like JSON it allows the transmission of data objects that contain name–value pairs, but in a more concise manner.
Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) is a free and open-source cross-platform data format used to serialize structured data. It is useful in developing programs that communicate with each other over a network or for storing data.
This JavaScript example implementation provides the toJSON method used by the JSON.stringify() [9] function to serialize the class into a simple string instead of a composite data type. It calls Object.freeze() to make the instance immutable. [10] It overrides the built-in toString() method [11] and the valueOf() method. [12]
