Description

XParam is a general-purpose tool for parameter handling in C++.

It allows object serialization and deserialization in a format that is human-readable and -writeable, and is unaffected by issues of word-size and endianity. The XParam format is also not confused by objects containing pointers: it saves the objects in such a manner that their conceptual contents can be restored perfectly.

For this reason, XParam provides an excellent tool for cross-program and cross-platform communication. In future, XParam may also be extended to allow cross-language communication, but for now it is only available in C++.
