Hello,
I need to serialize into and from a memory buffer using boost::archive::binary_oarchive and binary_iarchive.
Using std::stringstream does not work (it does work with text_oarchive and text_iarchive in memory and using files).
I found a mention in the archives about similar need here: http://lists.boost.org/boost-users/2007/10/31580.php
But I cannot figure it out.
Have you tried using the Boost IO Stream library to create a stream that buffers in memory and use that with a binary archive?
The posting I mentioned above suggests the same thing. As I said, I did try for several hours, but the iostreams documentation is so difficult I could not figure it out.
I have a working version that I could send. It is just a few lines of code. Matthias
