Public predicates

parse/2

Parses a list of bytes in the MessagePack format returning the corresponding term representation. Throws an error when parsing is not possible (usually due to an invalid byte sequence).

Compilation flags:

static

Template:

parse(Bytes,Term)

Mode and number of proofs:

parse(@list(byte),-ground) - one_or_error

---

generate/2

Generates a list of bytes in the MessagePack format representing the given term. Throws an error when generating is not possible (usually due to a term with no corresponding MessagePack representation).

Compilation flags:

static

Template:

generate(Term,Bytes)

Mode and number of proofs:

generate(@ground,-list(byte)) - one_or_error
