mrpt::serialization::CMessage Class Reference

Detailed Description

A class that contain generic messages, that can be sent and received from a "CClientTCPSocket" object.

A message consists of a "header" (or type), and a "body" (or content). Apart from arbitrary data, specific methods are provided for easing the serialization of MRPT's "CSerializable" objects. This class is also used for passing data to hardware interfaces (see mrpt::comms::CSerialPort)

◆ deserializeIntoExistingObject()

void CMessage::deserializeIntoExistingObject ( CSerializable obj)

A method that parse the data in the message into an existing object.

Note that the class of the object must be known and must match the one of the serialized object. std::exception On corrupt data, unknown serialized objects, unknown serialized object version, non-matching classes,...

◆ deserializeIntoNewObject()

void CMessage::deserializeIntoNewObject ( CSerializable::Ptr obj)

A method that parse the data in the message into a new object of (a priori) unknown class.

The pointer will contain on return a copy of the reconstructed object. Deleting this object when no longer required is the responsability of the user. Note that previous contents of the pointer will be ignored (it should be nullptr). std::exception On corrupt data, unknown serialized objects, unknown serialized object version,...

◆ getContentAsString()

void CMessage::getContentAsString ( std::string &  str)

Gets the contents of the message as a string.

◆ getContentAsStruct()

template<class T >
void mrpt::serialization::CMessage::getContentAsStruct ( T &  data) const

◆ serializeObject()

void CMessage::serializeObject ( const CSerializable obj)

A method for serializing a MRPT's object into the content.

Any modification to data in "content" after this will corrupt the object serialization. Member "type" is unmodified in this method.
