Class Summary

Class	Description
ArrayConverter	Converter for Array serialization.
ListConverter	Converter for List serialization.
MapConverter	Converter for Map serialization.
MethodDescription	Describe a method. It contains the method name, return type and parameters type. For choose the best method that corresponds to a search one, we compute a "distance" between methods: This "distance" is build for when match exactly, the distance is 0. If the two methods have different name or different number of parameters the distance is "infinite". The distance between primitive and their associated Object (For example int <-> java.lang.Integer, boolean <-> java.lang.Boolean, ...) is MethodDescription.DISTANCE_PRIMITIVE_OBJECT. The distance between two numbers (double, float, ...) is MethodDescription.DISTANCE_NUMBERS. The distance (for returned value only) between a type and a Future that embed this type is MethodDescription.DISTANCE_FUTURE. The distance with a Tuple and QiStruct is MethodDescription.DISTANCE_TUPLE_STRUCT For others case the distance becomes "infinite" By example for libqi signature "call::s(i)": Method JavaDistance String call(int i)0 = 0 (Distance String and 's') + 0 (Distance int and 'i') String call(Integer i)1 = 0 (Distance String and 's') + 1 (Distance Integer and 'i') Future<String> call(int i)100 = 100 (Distance Future<String> and 's') + 0 (Distance int and 'i') Future<String> call(Integer i)101 = 100 (Distance Future<String> and 's') + 1 (Distance Integer and 'i') OptionalConverter Converter for Optional objects. QiSerializer Class that provides methods to serialize and deserialize custom objects to and from supported types.
