Serialize / de-serialize an AutoHotkey object structure.
Requires AHK v1.1+ OR v2.0-a049+
License: WTFPL
Syntax
str := SerDes( obj [ ,, indent := "" ] )
bytes := SerDes( obj, outfile [ , indent := "" ] )
Parameters
str [retval] - String representation of the object
bytes [retval] - Bytes written to 'outfile'.
obj [in] - AHK object to serialize.
outfile [in, opt] - The file to write to. If no absolute path is specified, %A_WorkingDir% is used.
indent [in, opt] - If indent is an integer or string, then array elements and object members will
be pretty-printed with that indent level. Blank(""), the default, OR 0, selects
the most compact representation. Using an integer indent indents that many spaces
per level. If indent is a string, (such as "`t"), that string is used to indent
each level. Negative integer is treated as positive.
Syntax
obj := SerDes( src )
Parameters
obj [retval] - An AHK object
src [in] - Either a 'SerDes()' formatted string or the path to the file containing 'SerDes()' formatted text.
- Serilaized output is similar to JSON except for escape sequences which follows AHK's specification. Also, strings, numbers and objects are allowed as
object/{}keys unlike JSON which restricts it to string data type only. - Non-standard AHK objects such as COM, Func, FileObject, RegExMatchObject are not supported.
- Object references, including circular ones, are supported and notated as $n, where n is the 1-based index of the referenced object in the heirarchy tree when encountered during enumeration (for-loop) OR as it appears from left to right (for string representation) as marked by an opening brace
{or bracket[.
1 2
{ "key1": ["Hello World"], "key2": $2 } // -> $2 references the object stored in 'key1'
