Precondition

Warning

Bug:

Size of blob-header identifies type 1 or type 2 (with compression feature).

BLOBs of type mxUNKNOWN_CLASS reflects serialized (streamed) data and should be handled as mxCHAR_CLASS thus. Before packing data into a typed blob the caller is responsible to ensure not to deal with mxUNKNOWN_CLASS data.

In this module it's countless if the data is serialized or not, since it's a simple char array in that case.

Store type and dimensions of MATLAB vectors/arrays in BLOBs native and free of matlab types, to provide data sharing with other applications.
Switched with the command mksqlite('typedBLOBs', <integer value>), where <integer value> is 0 for "off" and 1 for "on".

int32_t	sizeDims[1]	Number of dimensions, followed by sizes of each dimension First byte after header at &tbh->sizeDims[tbh->sizeDims[0]+1]
int16_t	ver	Struct size as kind of header version number for later backwards compatibility (may increase only!)
