Re: [Boost-users] Serialization of dynamic data

Just wrap it as a "binary_object". Use: ar & NVP(binary_object(tarray, sizeof(tarray)); Robert Ramey Markus Werle wrote:

Your solution below would likely work. These days I would expect find the T* / size pair replaced with something like std::vector tarray in which case you could have just used:

ar & tarray

Is there a possibilty to say "store as binary data" even for xml archives? Sometimes the <item></item> overhead is just too big and I'd prefer the archive to include a CDATA section in that case. All other items should remain human readable, UI like this:

ar & stored_as_binary_data(tarray);

This would be very useful for std::vector<double> and friends ...
