Sample usage

Packing

QVariantList list;
list << 1 << 2 << 3;
QByteArray array = MsgPack::pack(list);

Unpacking:

QVariantList unpacked = MsgPack::unpack(array).toList();

By default these Qt types are supported: Int, UInt, LongLong, ULongLong, Double, QByteArray, Bool, QString, QStringList, QVariantList, QVariantMap.

Also you can provide packer and unpacker functions for any other type (even for user type defined via Q_DECLARE_METATYPE) or MsgPack type.

Thread-safety

At this time it is not thread safe to call MsgPack::registerPacker, MsgPack::registerUnpacker and MsgPack::setCompatibilityModeEnabled from different threads. pack and unpack methods do not use any global data, so
