Dear experts, I am using boost serialization library to serialize a huge database (has a lot of stl containers, shared pointers etc. ). I have a general question regarding serialization lib of boost. Suppose I have serialized a database in text format (say, text1.doc), cleared the existing database, import the exported one back and re-export (say, text2.doc). Now, should I see any difference between text1.doc and text2.doc? Actually I am seeing some difference. If I shouldn't, can someone point me to the common mistakes one can do for which it differences can take place? Thanks in advance, Arunava.
