Overview

The package "gob" manages streams of gobs - binary values exchanged between an Encoder (transmitter) and a Decoder (receiver). A typical use is transporting arguments and results of remote procedure calls (RPCs) such as those provided by package "net/rpc".

The package "json" provides support for encoding and decoding JSON.

JSON

TODO github recipe

var as []*A

err = json.NewDecoder(file).Decode(&as)

XML

TODO github recipe

An example available in "Go in Action" page 56.
