Re: [Boost-users] [BGL][Serialization] Reading a graph from a binary file: "vector subscript out of range error" and portability

As for the portability, I found that there are a few affecting factors, e.g. different variable sizes and processor architectures [1]. However, I just generated the files on an another computer with similar system, and the files are exactly the same as what I previously generated on my computer. The other computer can read the file properly. As I don't target too different architectures, I think I am going to check myself to what extend the binary format is portable.

Just want to re-iterate that binary archives will generally not be portable. You might want to look at portable_binary_?archive Robert Ramey
