Readme for binary-0.2
binary: efficient, pure binary serialisation using lazy ByteStrings
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 'binary' package provides Data.Binary, containing the Binary class,
and associated methods, for serialising values to and from lazy
ByteStrings.
A key feature of 'binary' is that the interface is both pure, and efficient.
The 'binary' package is portable to GHC and Hugs.
Building:
runhaskell Setup.hs configure
runhaskell Setup.hs build
runhaskell Setup.hs install
First:
import Data.Binary
and then write an instance of Binary for the type you wish to serialise.
More information in the haddock documentation.
