Detailed Description

An output archive designed to save data in a compact binary representation portable over different architectures.

This archive outputs data to a stream in an extremely compact binary representation with as little extra metadata as possible.

This archive will record the endianness of the data as well as the desired in/out endianness and assuming that the user takes care of ensuring serialized types are the same size across machines, is portable over different architectures.

When using a binary archive and a file stream, you must use the std::ios::binary format flag to avoid having your data altered inadvertently.

Warning

This archive has not been thoroughly tested across different architectures. Please report any issues, optimizations, or feature requests at the project github.
