序列化结构

Question

假设我有一个结构，其成员值我想通过网络发送到另一个使用winsock 2的系统。我使用的是C++语言。 我如何将它转换为char *请记住结构必须在发送之前序列化，以及如何将char *反序列化到另一端的struct中？我发现boost序列化是对类似问题的建议，但任何人都可以用序列化和反序列化的小代码片段来说明吗？

这个问题可能看起来很基本，但对相关帖子的其他答案没有多大帮助。

Answer 1

如果你的结构是POD你可以使用memcpy：

::memcpy(data, &your_struct, sizeof(YourStruct)));

，反之亦然接待处：

::memcpy(&your_struct, data, sizeof(YourStruct)));

凡data是char*。不要忘记你必须分配它，确保它足够大并在最后删除它。

好吧我会从助推网站采取example，因为我不明白你无法理解它。
我添加了一些评论和更改它，你可以通过网络传输。网络代码本身不在这里。为此，你可以看看boost::asio。

int main() { 
    // create and open a character archive for output 
    // we simply use std::strinstream here 
    std::stringstream ofs; 

    // create class instance 
    const gps_position g(35, 59, 24.567f); 

    // save data to archive 
    { 
     boost::archive::text_oarchive oa(ofs); 
     // write class instance to archive 
     oa << g; 
     // archive and stream closed when destructors are called 
    } 

    // now we have const char* ofs.str().c_str() 
    // transfer those bytes via network 
    // read them on the other machine 

    gps_position newg; 
    { 
     // create and open an archive for input 
     std::stringstream ifs(the_string_we_read_from_the_network); 
     boost::archive::text_iarchive ia(ifs); 
     // read class state from archive 
     ia >> newg; 
     // archive and stream closed when destructors are called 
    } 
    return 0; 
}

你可以做

struct MyStruct { 

    int data; 
    char* someNullTerminatedName; // Assuming not larger than 1023 chars 

    std::ostream& serialize(std::ostream& os) const { 
     char null = '\0'; 
     os.write((char*)&data, sizeof(data)); 
     os.write(someNullTerminatedName, strlen(someNullTerminatedName)); 
     os.write(&null, 1); 
     return os; 
    } 
    std::istream& deserialize(std::istream& is) { 
     char buffer[1024]; 
     int i = 0; 
     is.read((char*)&data, sizeof(data)); 
     do { buffer[i] = is.get(); ++i; } while(buffer[i] != '\0'); 
     if (someNullTerminatedName != NULL) free(someNullTerminatedName); 
     someNullTerminatedName = (char*)malloc(i); 
     for (i = 0; buffer[i] != '\0'; ++i) { 
      someNullTerminatedName[i] = buffer[i]; 
     } 
     return is; 
    } 
}; 

它是由你来照顾字节序和差异在int S和诸如此类的东西的尺寸。

例子：

MyStruct foo, bar; 
std::stringstream stream; 
foo.serialize(stream); 
// ... Now stream.str().c_str() contains a char* buffer representation of foo. 
// For example it might contain [ 1f 3a 4d 10 h e l l o w o r l d \0 ] 
bar.deserialize(stream); 
// ... Now bar is a copy, via a serial stream of data, of foo. 

如果你有一个套接字库，通过C++输入输出流暴露其接口，那么你甚至都不需要stringstream的。

您也可以查看Google的Protocol Buffers，这是一个用于在主机之间发送数据的平台/语言独立库。

但是，范例转向了先编写协议，然后将数据结构纳入其中。这样做的好处是它可以强制你的软件架构适应简单的数据类型。

以下示例显示了将struct序列化为char数组并将其反序列化的最简单方法。

#include <iostream> 
#include <cstring> 

#define BUFSIZE 512 
#define PACKETSIZE sizeof(MSG) 

using namespace std; 

typedef struct MSG 
{ 
    int type; 
    int priority; 
    int sender; 
    char message[BUFSIZE]; 
}MSG; 

void serialize(MSG* msgPacket, char *data); 
void deserialize(char *data, MSG* msgPacket); 
void printMsg(MSG* msgPacket); 

int main() 
{ 
    MSG* newMsg = new MSG; 
    newMsg->type = 1; 
    newMsg->priority = 9; 
    newMsg->sender = 2; 
    strcpy(newMsg->message, "hello from server\0"); 
    printMsg(newMsg); 

    char data[PACKETSIZE]; 

    serialize(newMsg, data); 

    MSG* temp = new MSG; 
    deserialize(data, temp); 
    printMsg(temp); 

    return 0; 
} 

void serialize(MSG* msgPacket, char *data) 
{ 
    int *q = (int*)data;  
    *q = msgPacket->type;  q++;  
    *q = msgPacket->priority; q++;  
    *q = msgPacket->sender;  q++; 

    char *p = (char*)q; 
    int i = 0; 
    while (i < BUFSIZE) 
    { 
     *p = msgPacket->message[i]; 
     p++; 
     i++; 
    } 
} 

void deserialize(char *data, MSG* msgPacket) 
{ 
    int *q = (int*)data;  
    msgPacket->type = *q;  q++;  
    msgPacket->priority = *q; q++;  
    msgPacket->sender = *q;  q++; 

    char *p = (char*)q; 
    int i = 0; 
    while (i < BUFSIZE) 
    { 
     msgPacket->message[i] = *p; 
     p++; 
     i++; 
    } 
} 

void printMsg(MSG* msgPacket) 
{ 
    cout << msgPacket->type << endl; 
    cout << msgPacket->priority << endl; 
    cout << msgPacket->sender << endl; 
    cout << msgPacket->message << endl; 
}
