const char *rmw_get_serialization_format(void)

Get the unique serialization format for this middleware.

Return the format in which binary data is serialized. One middleware can only have one encoding. In contrast to the implementation identifier, the serialization format can be equal between multiple RMW implementations. This means, that the same binary messages can be deserialized by RMW implementations with the same format.
