Introduction

============

[MessagePack](http://msgpack.org/) saves type-information to the serialized data. Thus each data is

stored in **type-data** or **type-length-data** style.

MessagePack supports following types:

   * Fixed length types

       - Integers

       - nil

       - boolean

       - Floating point

   * Variable length types

       - Raw bytes

   * Container types

       - Arrays

       - Maps

Each type has one or more serialize format:

   * Fixed length types

       - Integers

           + positive fixnum

           + negative fixnum

           + uint 8

           + uint 16

           + uint 32

           + uint 64

           + int 8

           + int 16

           + int 32

           + int 64

       - Nil

           + nil

       - Boolean

           + true

           + false

       - Floating point

           + float

           + double

   * Variable length types

       - Raw bytes

           + fix raw

           + raw 16

           + raw 32

   * Container types

       - Arrays

           + fix array

           + array 16

           + array 32

       - Maps

           + fix map

           + map 16

           + map 32

Current Implementation

======================

The following code provides pure Object Pascal implementation of msgpack

according to [Format Specification](http://wiki.msgpack.org/display/MSGPACK/Format+specification) from Dec 31 2012.
