AMF3 encoding/decoding library for Lua 5.1
Copyright (C) 2012-2016 Arseny Vakhrushev <arseny.vakhrushev at gmail dot com>


Description
-----------

The library provides two functions:

amf3.encode(value)

- Encodes 'value' into an AMF3 representation and returns it as a string.
- A table is encoded as a dense array when it has ascending integer keys
  that start with 1 and have no gaps. An empty table adheres to this rule.
  A table with all keys being strings is encoded as an anonymous object.
  In all other cases, a table is encoded as a dictionary.

amf3.decode(data [, position])

- Decodes an object from 'data' and returns it as the first value.
- The second argument specifies an initial data position (>= 0) in the string.
- The number of bytes read from the string is returned as the second value.
- The AMF3 Object type is decoded as a table with the additional '_class'
  (class name) and '_data' (externalizable object's data) fields set when
  applicable.


Installation
------------

Linux, OS X, Cygwin:

  make
  make install

BSD:

  gmake
  gmake install

If you need additional adjustments, please refer to 'Makefile' and 'config'.
For example, you might want to change the installation prefix in place:

  make PREFIX=/your/path install

You can also build with CMake:

  cmake .
  make
  make install
