Serializing a Method

5 Oct 2007

      Hi to all
I am new to the boost library, I downloaded it and I am doing some tests.
I was using MFC serialization.
I want to do something like this :

template<class _CReceiver, class _CMemberType>
class CASetMemberCommand
{
	friend class boost::serialization::access;

public:
	typedef void (_CReceiver::* Action)(_CMemberType) ;

protected:
	_CReceiver *m_pReceiver;
	_CMemberType m_Property;
	Action m_fnAction;
public:
	CASetMemberCommand()
	{
		m_pReceiver = NULL;
	}
	CASetMemberCommand(_CReceiver *pReceiver,
		Action fnAction,
		_CMemberType memberProperty)
	{
		m_pReceiver = pReceiver;
		m_fnAction = fnAction;
		m_Property = memberProperty;
	}

	~CASetMemberCommand()
	{
	}

	virtual void Execute()
	{
		if(m_pReceiver)
			(m_pReceiver->*m_fnAction)(m_Property);
	}

	template<class Archive>
	void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int /* file_version */){
		ar  & BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(m_pReceiver)
			//& BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(m_fnAction)
			& BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(m_Property);
	}

	void Save(const char * filename)
	{
		std::ofstream ofs(filename);
		assert(ofs.good());
		boost::archive::xml_oarchive oa(ofs);
		oa << BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(this);
	}

	void Load( const char * filename)
	{
		std::ifstream ifs(filename);
		assert(ifs.good());
		boost::archive::xml_iarchive ia(ifs);
		ia >> BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(*this);
	}

};

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{

	gps_position pos(32,52,25.0f);
	CASetMemberCommand<gps_position,int> cmd(&pos,&gps_position::SetMinutes,25);
	CASetMemberCommand<gps_position,int> cmd4(&pos,&gps_position::SetDegrees,25);
	cmd.Execute();
	SaveCommand(cmd,"D:/test.xml");

	cmd.Save("D:/Test2.xml");
	CASetMemberCommand<gps_position,int> cmd2;
	cmd2.Load("D:/Test2.xml");

	return 0;
}

the problem is that BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(m_fnAction) is not working
(compile errors);

Is there any way to save a methode of w class, so it can be loaded and
used later?

Thank you
