Interface IMarshaler<TSource, TTarget>

Namespace

PolyType

Assembly

PolyType.dll

Represents a bidirectional mapping between TSource and TTarget.

public interface IMarshaler<TSource, TTarget>

Type Parameters

TSource

The source type from which we're marshaling.

TTarget

The target type to which we're marshaling.

Remarks

Implementations should form a bijection between TSource and TTarget, meaning that chaining Marshal(TSource?) with Unmarshal(TTarget?) and vice versa should always produce equal results.

Methods

Marshal(TSource?)

Maps an instance of TSource to TTarget.

TTarget? Marshal(TSource? value)

Parameters

value TSource

The input of type TSource.

Returns

TTarget

A value of type TTarget corresponding to value.

Unmarshal(TTarget?)

Maps an instance of TTarget back to TSource.

TSource? Unmarshal(TTarget? value)

Parameters

value TTarget

The input of type TTarget.

Returns

TSource

A value of type TSource corresponding to value.
