Do I need a serializer/deserializer?

[Juan]

I have implemented a new type of message

class HelloMsg extends FieldsChunk
{
    chunkLength = HEADER_LENGTH;
    int s = 0;
    string name;
}

• Then I get this error when sending it:

• " Implicit data reinterpretation via chunk serialization/deserialization (inet::ieee80211::Ieee80211DataHeader -> inet::HelloMsg) is disabled to prevent unexpected behavior due to reinterpretation and unpredictable performance degradation due to overhead  (you may consider changing the Chunk::enableImplicitChunkSerialization flag or passing the PF_ALLOW_SERIALIZATION flag"

• So I set the flag:     header->enableImplicitChunkSerialization = true;

• But then I get another one: Cannot find serializer for inet::HelloMsg

• So I guess I need a serializer/deserializer. I write both, but the deserializer is not able to extract the data properly (if I print it, it shows 2048 for an int, e.g.) . Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
• Serializer
  • stream.writeUint16Be(sampleMsg->getS());
  • stream.writeString(sampleMsg->getName());
• Deserializer
  • auto sampleMsg = makeShared<HelloMsg>();
  • sampleMsg->setS(stream.readUint16Be());
  • sampleMsg->setName(stream.readString().c_str());

Thank you
