java.lang.Object
de.craftsblock.craftsnet.api.codec.CodecPair<T,C>
Type Parameters:
T - The target type the codec supports.
C - The codec type, which must implement Codec.
Direct Known Subclasses:
DecoderPair, EncoderPair
@Experimental public abstract sealed class CodecPair<T,C extends Codec<?,?>> extends Object permits DecoderPair<T>, EncoderPair<T>
A sealed base class representing a binding between a target type and a corresponding codec.

This class is extended by DecoderPair and EncoderPair to handle specific codec types. It provides utility methods to validate and adapt target types.
