3. TODO

The following are a wishlist or things planned that may come in later versions.

  • More clear errors

    • Currently during e.g. UnmarshalBinary calls, just an io.EOF will be returned if the buffer is exhausted early. This may be able to be a little more context-helpful by using the Err* errors.

  • Confirmation of read/write sizes in buffers

    • We know the sizes they should be, theres no reason to not confirm it.

  • Goroutines

    • This of course wont work for serializing and keeping order of children (e.g. RG ⇒ Record); thatd still need to be ordered, but it will allow for parallel parsing of those children. Should benchmark, though; it may not be worth it.

  • context.Context support for Read* and Write* funcs

    • This is a relatively low priority as the passed net.Conn will likely return an error if its own context is canceled. This can be handled in the caller downstream.
