* [Swift] Verify size-prefixed roots from reader position Validate the size prefix before advancing ByteBuffer.reader, then use the active reader position consistently for root, file identifier, and returned-object verification. Cover malformed decoy roots, oversized prefixes, short identifiers, and valid prefixed identifiers. * Use wrapping arithmetic in Swift verifier --------- Co-authored-by: Darren Carreras <283775510+carrerasdarren-cell@users.noreply.github.com> |

FlatBuffers
FlatBuffers is a cross platform serialization library architected for maximum memory efficiency. It allows you to directly access serialized data without parsing/unpacking it first, while still having great forwards/backwards compatibility.
Quick Start
-
Build the compiler for flatbuffers (
flatc)Use
cmaketo create the build files for your platform and then perform the compilation (Linux example).cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" make -j -
Define your flatbuffer schema (
.fbs)Write the schema to define the data you want to serialize. See monster.fbs for an example.
-
Generate code for your language(s)
Use the
flatccompiler to take your schema and generate language-specific code:./flatc --cpp --rust monster.fbsWhich generates
monster_generated.handmonster_generated.rsfiles. -
Serialize data
Use the generated code, as well as the
FlatBufferBuilderto construct your serialized buffer. (C++example) -
Transmit/store/save Buffer
Use your serialized buffer however you want. Send it to someone, save it for later, etc...
-
Read the data
Use the generated accessors to read the data from the serialized buffer.
It doesn't need to be the same language/schema version, FlatBuffers ensures the data is readable across languages and schema versions. See the
Rustexample reading the data written byC++.
