Cassandra uses the DataOutput / DataInput interfaces and related classes (DataOutputPlus, DataOutputStream, AbstractDataOutput, etc.) to serialize primitive types - integers of various lengths, strings, etc, as part of various inter-node messages, and so on. This patch implements similar primitive type serialization/deserialization in C++. The interface is quite different, but the functionality is the same and so is the serialized format. The fact that the format is identical (I verified this) is important, because we want a C++ node to be able to communicate with a Java node. Signed-off-by: Nadav Har'El <nyh@cloudius-systems.com>
