api: enforce vla is last and fixed string type
Enforce that variable length fields are the last element of API messages. Add a 'fixed' version of string type, since dealing with multiple variable length strings turned out too painful for the C language bindings. The string type is now: { string name[64]; // NUL terminated C-string. Essentially decays to u8 name[64] string name[]; // Variable length string with embedded len field (vl_api_string_t) }; The latter notation could be made available to other types as well. e.g. { vl_api_address_t addresses[]; } instead of { u32 n_addr; vl_api_address_t addresses[n_addr]; }; Type: fix Change-Id: I18fa17ef47227633752ab50453e8d20a652a9f9b Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
