Description

The ToBytes method in the Sandbox.Internal.TypeLibrary class is used to convert an object of a generic type T into a byte array. This can be useful for serialization purposes, where you need to store or transmit the object in a binary format.

Usage

To use the ToBytes method, you need to have an instance of the TypeLibrary class. You can then call the method with the object you wish to convert to a byte array.

Ensure that the type T is serializable, as the method will attempt to convert the object into a byte array representation.

Example

// Example usage of the ToBytes method

// Assume we have a serializable class
public class MyData
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

// Create an instance of MyData
MyData data = new MyData { Id = 1, Name = "Example" };

// Convert the MyData instance to a byte array
TypeLibrary typeLibrary = new TypeLibrary();
byte[] byteArray = typeLibrary.ToBytes(data);

// byteArray now contains the binary representation of the MyData object
