Returned from Serializer::serialize_tuple_variant.

Example use

use serde::ser::{Serialize, SerializeTupleVariant, Serializer};

enum E {
    T(u8, u8),
    U(String, u32, u32),
}

impl Serialize for E {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        match *self {
            E::T(ref a, ref b) => {
                let mut tv = serializer.serialize_tuple_variant("E", 0, "T", 2)?;
                tv.serialize_field(a)?;
                tv.serialize_field(b)?;
                tv.end()
            }
            E::U(ref a, ref b, ref c) => {
                let mut tv = serializer.serialize_tuple_variant("E", 1, "U", 3)?;

                tv.serialize_field(b)?;
                tv.serialize_field(c)?;
                tv.end()
            }

Example implementation

The example data format presented on the website demonstrates an implementation of SerializeTupleVariant for a basic JSON data format.

Required Associated Types

type Ok

Must match the Ok type of our Serializer.

type Error: Error

Must match the Error type of our Serializer.
