Currently, the deserializer is hardcoded into remote_driver which makes
it impossible for admin to use it. One way to achieve a shared implementation
(besides moving the code to another module) would be pass @ret_params_val as a
void pointer as opposed to the remote_typed_param pointer and add a new extra
argument specifying which of those two protocols is being used and typecast
the pointer at the function entry. An example from remote_protocol:
struct remote_typed_param_value {
int type;
union {
int i;
u_int ui;
int64_t l;
uint64_t ul;
double d;
int b;
remote_nonnull_string s;
} remote_typed_param_value_u;
};
typedef struct remote_typed_param_value remote_typed_param_value;
struct remote_typed_param {
remote_nonnull_string field;
remote_typed_param_value value;
};
That would leave us with a bunch of if-then-elses that needed to be used across
the method. This patch takes the other approach using the new datatype
introduced in one of earlier commits.
