Android Question [SOLVED] Send multiple types by b4xserializator

[RAFA BRAVO]

Would it be possible to send several types by B4XSerializator? I would like to send and read a group of variables (this works fine)

but then a different set of variables. Thank you

You can send ONE serialized Type at once.
That said you can send any Type you want.

But be sure that you deserialize the type into the correct one.

If I only need to send one type at a time

But be sure that you deserialize the type into the correct one

I'm not sure about this part, any example to help me? Thank you

i don´t know a way to recognize the type. No.

I suggest to create ONE Type with all the infos you need or not need and always send the same type. So you can expect the same type coming in.

...You can send your Type of DATA... for example:

    Type theData (a1 as int, a2 as long, a3 as float, a4 as string) 'etc...
...
dim a as theData
a.initialize

a.a1=100
a.a2=10000000000
a.a3=0.0012
a.a4="my data, your data..."

Dim cx As B4XSerializator
dim b() as byte=cx.ConvertObjectToBytes(a)

I was asking about having a better organization, and not sending so many variables at once. But if it's the best solution, I'll work with only one type, thank you

you can have you own variables... those you want... only... and is just an idea... or you can make a map and send a map.... for example saying

dim a as map
a.initialize
a.put("typeofvar","string") 'so changing the typeofvar with a string... saying what is...
a.put("value","yourvalue")

just an idea...

 

[RAFA BRAVO]

It was my idea:

Dim type As data1 (data1Ok As boolean, data1Num As int, data1Value As string)

Dim type As data2 (dataOk As boolean, data2Num As int, data2Value As string)

A
ssuming I have many types and many variables in each type. my question was if more than one type could be serialized. If it is not possible, I will serialize a single type with many variables

 

[DonManfred]

You can create a List, add a Map to the list which also explains the type so you know what type is in the Map.

dim l as List
l.initialize

Dim m as map
m.initialize
m.Put("Type", "Type1")
m.Put("TypeObject", mytype1object)
l.put(m)

Dim m as map
m.initialize
m.Put("Type", "Type2")
m.Put("TypeObject", mytype2object)
l.put(m)

and then serialize the list....

Perfect, he tried it and this was what he was looking for
