Method serializeReflectValue

go/fory/fory.go:783–796

serializeReflectValue serializes a reflect.Value directly, avoiding boxing overhead. This is used by Serialize[T] fallback path to avoid struct copy. For structs, the value must be a pointer to struct, not struct value. go:noinline

(value reflect.Value)

//
//go:noinline
func (f *Fory) serializeReflectValue(value reflect.Value) ([]byte, error) {
	// Check that structs are passed as pointers
	if value.Kind() == reflect.Struct {
		return nil, fmt.Errorf("cannot serialize struct %s directly, use pointer to struct (*%s) instead", value.Type(), value.Type())
	}

	// Serialize the value - TypeMeta is written inline using streaming protocol
	f.writeCtx.WriteValue(value, RefModeTracking, true)
	if f.writeCtx.HasError() {
		return nil, f.writeCtx.TakeError()
	}

	return f.writeCtx.buffer.GetByteSlice(0, f.writeCtx.buffer.writerIndex), nil
}
