To clarify:
Each message would be <1KB of data total, and consist of some structured object
containing strings, numbers, dates, etc.
For instance there would be an "add user" request that would contain one or
more User objects each having a number of properties like:
- Full Name
- Username
- Password
- Email addresses (a variable length array)
- Street Address line1
- Street Address line1
- Street Address line1
- City
- State
- Zip
- Sign Up Date
.... and so on.
Since I need to work with other platforms, pickle is out... what are the
alternatives? XML? JSON?
How should I formally define each of the valid messages and objects?
Thank you,
:)
