Re: [Boost-users] Boost serialization: is there a way to perform selective read

Hey,

I would like to know whether there is a way to preform selective read using Boost serialization http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/libs/serialization/doc/index.html, thus reading serialized instance with its id/key.

The implementation that i know is saving instances to a file and then loading them all according to the saving order. Is there a way to read only one selected instance from the file.

How about serializing objects separately? I mean instead of saving a object and its children objects into a big file, simply saving them into different files.
