Re: [Boost-users] Boost Serialization make_binary & XML/ASCII

Robert, The utility I am writing needs to be able to extract a small portion from a large XML file generated by your library. Since it is performance sensitive I chose to use a SAX parser in order to avoid reading the whole file. Would it be much work to do this with the Spirit parser? As always, thanks for the super-fast response. Best regards, Terence

And another point.

If you want to parse the xml generated by boost serialization, the easy way would be just to use the spirt parser that is generated just for that purpose and is included in the library. This is also independent of the serialization library itself. The serialization library is really an "use case" of the spirit library for xml parsing.

And it already includes the base64 to binary stuff.

So, using the stuff that's already in there, the whole job is probably under 100 new lines of code.

Good Luck

I need to parse an XML file generated by Boost Serialization, part of the file is a section generated by make_binary. I was wondering which scheme was used to convert binary to ASCII, uuencode, Base64? Obviously I need to know in order that I can convert back.

TIA
