Comment (by gast128@…):

 Maybe this could be extended to a whole data format library. Some
 supported forms:
 - xml
 - json
 - yaml
 - hdf5
 - etc.

 Now property_tree and serialization library implement their own (limited)
 set of xml writing and parsing. Especially Boost.Serialization is very
 critical on the input of xml (e.g. spaces in incorrect places lead to
 errors. In fact the only guaranteed way is to let Boost.Serialization do
 the writing to xml). However a data format library with modern c++ (and
 support for large data sets, i.e. the possibility that the data is not
 loaded in memory at once) is a proposal for its own.
