CryptoBinaryFormat (JavaDocs for mmm-all 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT)

```
public interface CryptoBinaryFormat
```
Interface for the concept and constants of different formats of a binary representation. The formats FORMAT_ENCODED and FORMAT_COMPACT shall always be accepted. For generic implementations that only support a single format both formats can be used synonymously. Specific implementations may also support additional supports such as e.g. AsymmetricKeyPairEc.FORMAT_UNCOMORESSED.

Since:

1.0.0

`static String`	`FORMAT_ENCODED`	The format for the encoded binary representation.

- Field Detail
  - FORMAT_ENCODED
```
static final String FORMAT_ENCODED
```
    The format for the encoded binary representation. This is the most universal, portable and standardized format. However, it is also a large representation according to the length. If you want to store the raw data in the most efficient way use FORMAT_COMPACT instead.

  - FORMAT_COMPACT
```
static final String FORMAT_COMPACT
```
    The format for compact binary representation. This is the smallest representation that is supported.
