Container Frame Internals#
Due to the two disjoint activities: parse a byte vector into a high-level frame, and assemble a high-level frame into a byte vector, there are two direct subclasses, a
<decoded-container-frame>, which only has the high-level objects, and a<unparsed-container-frame>which keeps an underlying byte vector and an instance of<decoded-container-frame>.Parsing strategy and length information (which can be contradictionary).
