Enum representing the various strategies for decoding Datas from BSON.

As per the BSON specification, the default strategy is to decode Datas from BSON binary types with the generic binary subtype.

  • Decode Datas by deferring to their default decoding implementation.

    Note: The default decoding implementation attempts to decode the Data from a [UInt8], but because BSON does not support integer types other Int32 and Int64, it actually decodes from an [Int32] stored in BSON. This strategy paired with its corresponding encoding strategy results in an inefficient storage of the Data in BSON.
