pub struct BigSize(pub u64);Expand description
Lightning TLV uses a custom variable-length integer called BigSize. It is similar to Bitcoin’s variable-length integers except that it is serialized in big-endian instead of little-endian.
Like Bitcoin’s variable-length integer, it exhibits ambiguity in that certain values can be encoded in several different ways, which we must check for at deserialization-time. Thus, if you’re looking for an example of a variable-length integer to use for your own project, move along, this is a rather poor design.

sourcefn serialized_length(&self) -> usize
fn serialized_length(&self) -> usize
Gets the length of this object after it has been serialized. This can be overridden to optimize cases where we prepend an object with its length. Read more
