`decodeAny` overloads

Declared in `<balxml_decoder.h>`

Decode into a type‐erased `bdlar::AnyRef` from the current open input.

Decode the specified `object` of parameterized `TYPE` from the input source specified by a previous call to `open` and leave the reader in an open state. Return 0 on success, and a non‐zero value otherwise. A compilation error will result unless `TYPE` conforms to the requirements of a bdlat sequence or choice, as described in `bdlat_sequencefunctions` and `bdlat_choicefunctions`. The behavior is undefined unless this call was preceded by a prior successful call to `open`. Note that this function behaves identically to `decode`, but does not instantiate any templates at compile time at the expense of being slightly slower at runtime; see the `balxml` package documentation for more details.

Decode the specified `object` of parameterized `TYPE` from the specified input `stream`. Return a reference to the modifiable `stream`. If a decoding error is detected, `stream.fail()` will be `true` after this method returns. The (optionally) specified `uri` is used for identifying the input document in error messages. A compilation error will result unless `TYPE` conforms to the requirements of a `bdlat` sequence or choice, as described in `bdlat_sequencefunctions` and `bdlat_choicefunctions`. Note that this function behaves identically to `decode`, but does not instantiate any templates at compile time at the expense of being slightly slower at runtime; see the `balxml` package documentation for more details.
