Macros
Detailed Description
The QProtobufSerializer class registers serializers/deserializers for classes implementing a protobuf message, inheriting QProtobufMessage. These classes are generated automatically, based on a .proto
file, using the CMake function qt_add_protobuf or by running qtprotobufgen directly.
This class should be used as a base for specific serializers. The handlers property contains all message-specific serializers and should be used while serialization/deserialization. Inherited classes should reimplement scope of virtual methods that used by registered message serialization/deserialization functions.
Member Type Documentation
enum QAbstractProtobufSerializer::DeserializationError
This enum contains possible errors that can occur during deserialization. When an error occurs, call deserializationErrorString() to get a human-readable error message.
Constant | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
QAbstractProtobufSerializer::NoError | 0 | No error occurred. |
QAbstractProtobufSerializer::InvalidHeaderError | 1 | Something went wrong while attempting to decode a header in the message. |
QAbstractProtobufSerializer::NoDeserializerError | 2 | While deserializing a message, no deserializer was found for a type in the message. |
QAbstractProtobufSerializer::UnexpectedEndOfStreamError | 3 | While deserializing a message, the stream ended unexpectedly. |
QAbstractProtobufSerializer::InvalidFormatError | 4 | The data has invalid format. For example the JSON value doesn't match the field type. |
Member Function Documentation
[virtual noexcept]
QAbstractProtobufSerializer::~QAbstractProtobufSerializer()
Destroys this QAbstractProtobufSerializer.
template <typename T> bool QAbstractProtobufSerializer::deserialize(T *object, QByteArrayView data) const
This function deserializes a registered Protobuf message object from a QByteArray data. object must not be nullptr
. Returns true
if deserialization was successful, otherwise false
.
For a given type, T
, you should call the deserialize()
function on an instance of that type, which in turn will call this function for you.
Unexpected/unknown properties in the data are skipped.
See also serialize().
[pure virtual protected]
bool QAbstractProtobufSerializer::deserializeMessage(QProtobufMessage *message, const QtProtobufPrivate::QProtobufPropertyOrdering &ordering, QByteArrayView data) const
This is called by deserialize() to deserialize a registered Protobuf message message with ordering from a QByteArrayView data. message can be assumed to not be nullptr
. Returns true
if deserialization was successful, otherwise false
.
template <typename T> QByteArray QAbstractProtobufSerializer::serialize(const QProtobufMessage *message) const
This function serializes a registered Protobuf message message into a QByteArray. message must not be nullptr
.
For a given type, T
, you should call the serialize()
function on an instance of that type, which in turn will call this function for you.
See also deserialize().
[pure virtual protected]
QByteArray QAbstractProtobufSerializer::serializeMessage(const QProtobufMessage *message, const QtProtobufPrivate::QProtobufPropertyOrdering &ordering) const
This is called by serialize() to serialize a registered Protobuf message message with ordering. message must not be nullptr
. Returns a QByteArray containing the serialized message.

Q_DECLARE_PROTOBUF_SERIALIZERS(Type)
Defines serialize and deserialize functions for a Type inheriting QProtobufMessage. This is used as part of the code generated by the qtprotobufgen tool.
Q_PROTOBUF_OBJECT
Declares the propertyOrdering member in a class inheriting QProtobufMessage. This is used as part of the code generated by the qtprotobufgen tool.
