Application Framework serializable objects base class.
Library: ilvappframe
IlvDvSerializable
is a root base class shared by most Application Framework classes.
Application Framework provides a serialization mechanism that allows an object of a class inheriting from IlvDvSerializable
class to be * saved in a stream and to be dynamically created and loaded from a stream.
To do this, the inheriting class must first use the macro IlvDvDeclareDynCreate();
in its header file and the following macros in the implementation file, in this order:
Then, it must redefine the method serialize(IlvDvStream& stream)
to serialize its data.

Serializes the object in the stream stream.
Typically, the body of the method has the following form:
There are two ways to load and save data.
One way is to use istream
or ostream
objects given by methods istream* getInStream() const
and ostream* getOutStream() const
from the IlvDvStream
class directly.
The other way, which is usually easier, is to use specific serialization methods provided by the IlvDvStream
class.
This class provides serialization operators for basic types (IlInt
, IlBoolean
, and so on), and provides methods that make it easy to save a string, a bitmap, an IlvDvSerializable
object, and an array of IlvDvSerializable
objects.
Reimplemented in IlvDvDocument, IlvDvDocTemplate, IlvDvProjectDocument, IlvDvDocViewInterface, IlvDvFileInfo, IlvDvGrapherDocument, IlvDvManagerDocument, and IlvDvTextDocument.
