Method Decode

rpc.go:418–433

Decode decodes a TypedParam. These are part of the libvirt spec, and not xdr proper. TypedParams contain a name, which is called Field for some reason, and a Value, which itself has a "discriminant" - an integer enum encoding the actual type, and a value, the length of which varies based on the actu

(d *xdr.Decoder, v reflect.Value)

// actual type, and a value, the length of which varies based on the actual
// type.
func (tpd typedParamDecoder) Decode(d *xdr.Decoder, v reflect.Value) (int, error) {
	// Get the name of the typed param first
	name, n, err := d.DecodeString()
	if err != nil {
		return n, err
	}
	val, n2, err := tpd.decodeTypedParamValue(d)
	n += n2
	if err != nil {
		return n, err
	}
	tp := &TypedParam{Field: name, Value: *val}
	v.Set(reflect.ValueOf(*tp))

	return n, nil
}

// decodeTypedParamValue decodes the Value part of a TypedParam.
