PHP compatible serialization from C / C ++

Question

Does anyone know a library that allows serialization of data in C ++ so that it can be deserialized using the "unserialize" function by default?

Answer 1

There are several implementations for other languages ​​here.

The C implementation used by PHP itself is also here:

http://svn.php.net/repository/php/php-src/branches/PHP_5_2/ext/standard/var.c

http://svn.php.net/repository/php/php-src/branches/PHP_5_2/ext/standard/var_unserializer.c

However, if you are not sure if your choice serialization format will be the main bottleneck, consider using a more affordable serialization format such as JSON, XML, protocol buffers, or WDDX.

Answer 2

Since you are probably only serializing data, not PHP objects, you may find standardized "common ground" serialization more efficient. (JSON is probably the easiest)

Answer 3

Here is the same question for Java . With examples, it's pretty easy to write your own. PHP itself is written in c, and you can change the deserialize source to suit your needs.
