Struct PreferCompact

pub struct PreferCompact;

Available on crate feature serde only.

Serializes point/scalar compactly. Deserializes both compact and non-compact points/scalars.

It can be used when some data used to be serialized in default serialization format, and at some point you decided to use a compact serialization format. PreferCompact serializes points/scalar in compact format, but at deserialization it accepts both compact and non-compact forms.

PreferCompact does not work on serde backends which serialize structs as lists, such as bincode. Notably, (de)serialization of points/scalars in compact format will still work, but deserialization from non-compact form will produce an error.
