Imbricated data

[yann suisini]

Hi ,

I have to write a config file from a node editor with something like this

struct Node
{
   int id;
   string name;
}


struct Pin
{
    int id;
    Node* node;
}


struct Link
{
    int id;
    Pin*  start;
    Pin* end;
}


struct Config
{
   std::vector<Node> Nodes;
   std::vector<Pin> Pins;
   std::vector<Link> Links;
}

How can i serialize the topover object Config ? and deserialize ?

From the documentation , I cannot figure out how manage imbricated struct/objects  ?

Thanks !

Yann

Hi Yann,

  If you define a serialization function for each of your structs then serializing Config should "just work".  See the docs here for details: https://uscilab.github.io/cereal/serialization_functions.html

If you still have trouble, try posting a minimal compilable example to this list.
