C++ Native Object Protocols

libnop is a header-only library for serializing and deserializing C++ data types without external code generators or runtime support libraries. The only mandatory requirement is a compiler that supports the C++14 standard.

libnop has the following goals:

  * Make simple serialization tasks easy and complex tasks tractable.
  * Remove the need to use code generators and schema files to describe
    data types, formats, and protocols: perform these tasks naturally
    within the C++ language.
  * Avoid additional runtime support requirements for serialization.
  * Provide contemporary features such as bidirectional binary
    compatibility, data validation, type safety, and type fungibility.
  * Handle intrinsic types, common STL types and containers, and
    user-defined types with a minimum of effort.
  * Produce optimized code that is easy to analyze and profile.
  * Avoid internal dynamic memory allocation when possible.
