Hey,
I'm working on value serialization, and with the idea that they should
be serialized to XML.
Basically, this ValueComposite:
interface FooValue
extends ValueComposite
{
Property<String> foo();
Property<Long> bar();
}
will be serialized into something like:
<mypackage.FooValue><23BDCGEHA=>foovalue</23BDCGEHA=><dDSH32rE=>32</dDSH32rE=></mypackage.FooValue>
where the strange names are the versionized property names (SHA1 of the
name+type and then BASE64'ed). This should ensure that the strings are
"longlived", in te sense that we can easily deduct later what the
properties actually mean, as long as the description of the value is
still around(!).
One problem is the "=" padding at the end of the BASE64-encoded
versions, which is not ok for XML. Alin is working on that though.
More importantly, does this seem like a decent format for values?
