Without this, a
List(Text)
(which isList(List(Int8))
) which is notencodeded as
List(struct { x @0 :Text; })
, will decode the first textpointer as a tag and get very wrong answers. The patch:
List(Text)
correctly, as well asdecoding
List(struct {})
which was upgraded fromList(Int64)
orList(AnyPointer)
(or compatible types).We still don't support double lists.
This relates to Issue #3 (which relies on the upgrade decoding for its
List(Text)
encoding to be valid).
