12 // This must be specialized for any type |T| to be serialized/deserialized as
13 // a mojom union. |DataViewType| is the corresponding data view type of the
14 // mojom union. For example, if the mojom union is example.Foo, |DataViewType|
15 // will be example::FooDataView, which can also be referred to by
16 // example::Foo::DataView (in chromium) and example::blink::Foo::DataView (in
17 // blink).
18 //
19 // Similar to StructTraits, each specialization of UnionTraits implements the
20 // following methods:
21 //   1. Getters for each field in the Mojom type.
22 //   2. Read() method.
23 //   3. [Optional] IsNull() and SetToNull().
24 //   4. [Optional] SetUpContext() and TearDownContext().
25 // Please see the documentation of StructTraits for details of these methods.
26 //
27 // Unlike StructTraits, there is one more method to implement:
28 //   5. A static GetTag() method indicating which field is the current active
29 //      field for serialization:
30 //
31 //        static DataViewType::Tag GetTag(const T& input);
32 //
33 //      During serialization, only the field getter corresponding to this tag
34 //      will be called.
