Feature Request: Support more STL containers
Brief Summary of Request
Currently, this library only supports sequential containers like std::vector and std::array, but other container types should also have built-in support.
These include:
-
std::array -
std::vector -
std::deque -
std::forward_list -
std::list -
std::set -
std::map -
std::multiset -
std::multimap -
std::unordered_set -
std::unordered_map -
std::unordered_multiset -
std::unordered_multimap
As well as container adapters:
-
std::stack -
std::queue -
std::priority_queue
And a few other popular data structures:
-
std::complex -
std::pair -
std::tuple
What Is The Value Added With This Feature
Easier serialization without user-defined functions.
Desired Outcome
// server
void UseMap(std::map<int, std::string> map);
// client
MyClient client;
std::map<int, std::string> my_map;
client.call_func("UseMap", my_map);Other Details
This may be updated/replaced when C++20 is adopted.
