Variant

Template for a codec for a sum type A.

Each constructor of A should get assigned a unique index when implementing this class. It is used to tag XML trees, so that the correct decoding function can be chosen.

In addition to the contract of Codec, instances of this class must also preserve the index, that is, any index returned by enc must produce a valid decoding function in dec.

Using this is simple: Instead of creating a new Codec object, create an object extending from this class and implement enc and dec accordingly. It is automatically a Codec.

Example usage

new Variant[Option[A]]("option") {
  def enc(a: Option[A]) = a match {
    case Some(a) => (0, Codec[A].encode(a))
    case None    => (1, Codec[Unit].encode(()))
  }
  def dec(idx: Int) = idx match {
    case 0 => Some(Codec[A].decode(_).right.map(Some.apply))
    case 1 => Some(Codec[Unit].decode(_).right.map(_ => None))
    case _ => None
  }
}

Create an identical codec which adds (or expects, respectively) an additional top-level tag.
The given tag can be anything acceptable as an XML attribute value, but should be globally unique. That is, no other codec should have the same tag. It is fine if there are multiple codecs for a type, as long as their tags are distinct, although that is not a requirement.
