Hi folks,
I'm working on a custom serialization on top of cl-serializer.
Some questions have come up:
1) Why aren't SERIALIZE and DESERIALIZE generic functions?
I could just specialize them this way or augment them
with auxiliary methods.
2) How am I supposed to make cl-serializer actually use my
custom definer? Do I really need to define my own mapper?
This would be quite unwieldy as I would have to always
specify this mapper then which makes the whole point of
the definer a bit moot since I had to write a wrapper
for this anyway...
3) Is this the intended way to support custom types in
cl-serializer?
4) What id space is intended for custom types? The one
between +first-reserved-code+ and +last-reserved-code+?
I also noticed that the definer 'serializer-deserializer' isn't
exported.
Thanks as always,
Leslie
