Detailed Description

Base class for streams (either in or out) based on binary formats. This class implements a basic functionality about platform-independent treatment of data (the big-endian/little-endian issue). Also this class implements functionality to avoid storing multiple times the same object (persistent data archive).

Member Function Documentation

bool chrono::ChBinaryArchive::IsBigEndianMachine ( )

Returns TRUE if the machine where the code runs has big endian byte ordering, returns FALSE otherwise.

void chrono::ChBinaryArchive::Init ( )

Reinitialize the vector of pointers to loaded/saved objects.

int chrono::ChBinaryArchive::PutPointer ( void * object )

Put a pointer in pointer vector, but only if it was not previously interted. Returns position of pointer if already existing, otherwise -1.

Member Data Documentation

std::vector<void*> chrono::ChBinaryArchive::objects_pointers [protected]

vector of pointers to stored/retrieved objects, to avoid saving duplicates or deadlocks
