I'm using boost.serialization for part of our messaging solution. Now here comes a problem: we want to communicate between 32bit and 64bit, is there a chance that using "text archive" would solve the problem ? It should - but there might be some caviats.
Suppose you generated an integer on your 64 bit machine longer than 32 bits. That is larger than 2^32 (~4,000,000,000. There is no way that the 32 bit machine can prepresent it so this wouldn't work. This isn't a problem with the library but an inherent limitation representing 64 bit integers on a 32 bit machine.
Other than this, it shold be fine.

I believe there is also the eos portable binary archive, see eos_portable_archive.zip <https://github.com/boost-vault/serialization/blob/master/eos_portable_archive.zip> in https://github.com/boost-vault/serialization. <https://github.com/boost-vault/serialization> Cheers, Jon
