Description

Interface Summary

FudgeField	A single field in the Fudge system.
FudgeFieldContainer	A container of Fudge fields providing simple access to principal types.
FudgeMessageFactory	A factory for Fudge messages.
FudgeStreamReader	Abstract interface for reading Fudge elements from a source.
FudgeStreamWriter	Abstract interface for writing Fudge elements to a target.
ImmutableFudgeFieldContainer	A container of Fudge fields that should be effectively immutable.
MutableFudgeFieldContainer	A container of Fudge fields that can be mutated.

Class Summary

AlternativeFudgeStreamWriter	Abstract implementation of a FudgeStreamWriter that detects major state changes and invokes other methods.
ClasspathUtilities	A collection of utilities for automatically populating Fudge contexts based on classpath scanning.
FudgeContext	The primary entry-point for code to interact with the rest of the Fudge system.
FudgeContextConfiguration	Abstraction of FudgeContext customization operations, such as registering user defined types or a specific taxonomy resolver.
FudgeDataInputStreamReader	An implementation of FudgeStreamReader for consuming data from a DataInput.
FudgeDataOutputStreamWriter	Implementation of a FudgeStreamWriter that writes to a DataOutput.
FudgeFieldPrefixCodec	Utility to manage the one byte field prefix.
FudgeFieldType<T>	The type of a field as defined by Fudge.
FudgeMsg	A mutable message in the Fudge system.
FudgeMsgBase	Standard implementation of FudgeFieldContainer.
FudgeMsgEnvelope	An envelope enclosing the top message in the Fudge system.
FudgeMsgField	A single immutable field in the Fudge system.
FudgeMsgFormatter	Tool to pretty-print a Fudge message.
FudgeMsgReader	A reader for returning whole Fudge messages (FudgeFieldContainer instances) from an underlying FudgeStreamReader instance.
FudgeMsgWriter	A writer for passing Fudge messages (FudgeFieldContainer instances) to an underlying FudgeStreamWriter instance.
FudgeSize	Utility for calculating the size of a Fudge message.
FudgeTypeDictionary	The dictionary of all known Fudge types.
ImmutableFudgeContext	Immutable wrapper for a FudgeContext that will be used for the global "default", or for use with ImmutableFudgeMsg.
ImmutableFudgeMsg	An immutable message in the Fudge system.
ModifiedUTF8Util	Deprecated.
UnknownFudgeFieldValue	A container to store a variable-sized field with a type that the current installation of Fudge cannot handle on decoding.
UTF8	Utility to manage UTF-8 encoding.

Enum Summary

FudgeStreamReader.FudgeStreamElement

Constants for the four stream element types as returned by FudgeStreamReader.next() and FudgeStreamReader.getCurrentElement().

Exception Summary

FudgeRuntimeException	A Fudge-specific runtime exception to wrap checked exception.
FudgeRuntimeIOException	A Fudge-specific IO exception to wrap the checked IOException.

Package org.fudgemsg Description

The core API for working with Fudge encoded data.

In general, most applications will start with an instance of FudgeContext, and use that to read, write, and persist instances of FudgeFieldContainer using the reader and writer classes.

Applications requiring serialization of more complex Java objects and automated support for encoding objects to/from Fudge messages should use the org.fudgemsg.mapping package.
