.SH "DESCRIPTION"
The
.BR libcoopgamma_ramps_marshal ()
function marshals
.I this
into a
.I buffer
that can be sent to another process on any computer
with a compatible processor. A compatible processor
is any processor with the same endianness, encoding
and sizes of the intrinsic data types and
.IR size_t .
.P
.I this
must be of any of the following types, and not casted
to any other type such as
.I void*
or
.IR libcoopgamma_ramps_t:
.IR libcoopgamma_ramps8_t ,
.IR libcoopgamma_ramps16_t ,
.IR libcoopgamma_ramps32_t ,
.IR libcoopgamma_ramps64_t ,
.IR libcoopgamma_rampsf_t ,
or
.IR libcoopgamma_rampsd_t .
