hi,

I hope I am not asking something that has already been covered.

does any one know if it is possible to serialize binary data ? for
example taking an unsigned char * pointer with a length field ? I know
it is possible to storing arrays but there does not seem to be an
argument for size when using the & operator on archives.

if not then would it be possible to load my array up into a vector and
then store that vector into an archive object ?

cheers,

ravi
