Foswiki::Serialise
API to allow structures to be serialised and de-serialized. This API will only return
basic types like hashes and arrarys
StaticMethod
serialise( $value, $style ) → $cereal
-
$value
the perl object we're serializing (typically a ref/obj)
-
$style
serialization format
#I think to be reusable we catually have to throw..
StaticMethod
deserialise( $text, $style, $into ) → $data
-
$text
the data we are deserialising
-
$style
serialization format
-
$into
the perl object we're deserializing into. The serialiser is matched to this object type.
Finishes all instantiated serialisers. There should only be at most one of each
serialiser instantiated at any given time, so you normally wouldn't want to call
this, except perhaps from the unit test framework; see Item11349.
