Serialization #

Client classes may be (de)serialized without any further intervention by the user. The following class:

struct shape :
	tct::cppproperties::properties
{
	MAKE_PROPERTY(name, std::string);
	MAKE_PROPERTY(x, float);
	MAKE_PROPERTY(y, float);
};

will be automatically serialized:

<properties>
    <name>My Shape</name>
    <x>12.98</x>
    <y>-38.01</y>
</properties>

{
    "name": "My Shape",
    "x": 12.98,
    "y": -38.01
}
