    • encode

      default void encode(T object, int length, Pipe pipe) throws IOException
      Called to encode an object when the requested length was too large. By default, a temporary buffer is allocated and then the regular encode method is called.
      Parameters:
      object - object which was passed to the writeEncode method
      length - requested buffer length
      pipe - pipe to write to
      Throws:
      IOException
