Interface ThriftCodec<T>

Type Parameters:

T - the type this codec supports

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractReflectionThriftCodec, BooleanThriftCodec, ByteBufferThriftCodec, ByteThriftCodec, CoercionThriftCodec, DoubleThriftCodec, EnumThriftCodec, IntegerThriftCodec, ListThriftCodec, LongThriftCodec, MapThriftCodec, ReflectionThriftStructCodec, ReflectionThriftUnionCodec, SetThriftCodec, ShortThriftCodec, VoidThriftCodec

public interface ThriftCodec<T>

A single type codec for reading and writing in Thrift format. Each codec is symmetric and therefore only supports a single concrete type.

Implementations of this interface are expected to be thread safe.
