Cross language message format tool supporting rust
i have a need to describe a data structure that is cross language and good for serialization and it needs to support rust hence i am here asking
my requirements are:
- generally describe a structure in C or rust
- input format must be tech writer friendly.
- must generate rust structs, c structures, and c# structs
- must generate compile time tables to encode and decode the struct
- in rust pass a slice and a compiled description of some type and get a struct back.
- in rust pass a struct and a compiled description and it is encoded into a slice
- that slice can be sent or received as a udp message or saved to a spi/i2c flash
- embedded (and no_sys) friendly - no memory allocation
this screams asn.1 and it screams rust serdes but these do nit meet other requirements
i have also looked at facebook/apache thrift and protobufs each help but leave large holes
so i am looking for a suggestion that is rust friendly
