public EncoderResult<ByteBuffer> encode(DBusVariant variant,
 int offset)
                                 throws EncoderException

Description copied from interface: Encoder

Encodes a value into bytes.

Specified by:

encode in interface Encoder<DBusVariant,ByteBuffer>

Parameters:

variant - The data type that needs to be encoded.

offset - The byte count of already encoded bytes, which is necessary for alignment padding.

Returns:

An EncoderResult containing the marshalled representation of the value.

Throws:

EncoderException - If the value could not have been encoded.
