9.2.1 Untagged Data ¶
When using these routines both ends of the wire know exactly what types are
coming and going and in what order. This data is restricted to the following
types:
- 8 bit unsigned bytes.
- 32 bit unsigned bytes.
- 32 bit integers.
- simple-strings less than 65535 in length.
- Function: wire:wire-output-byte wire byte ¶
- Function: wire:wire-get-byte wire ¶
- Function: wire:wire-output-number wire number ¶
- Function: wire:wire-get-number wire
&optional signed ¶
- Function: wire:wire-output-string wire string ¶
- Function: wire:wire-get-string wire ¶
-
These functions either output or input an object of the specified
data type. When you use any of these output routines to send data
across the wire, you must use the corresponding input routine
interpret the data.
