Slugging Through Boost Serialization and Asio Libraries
Today was spent trying to get a handle on the boost serialization and asio libraries to get some handle on the moving of messages over the tcp sockets that this project is going to use. If I had seen the "Serialization" example on the Asio Examples page, I'd have saved myself a ton of time, but I didn't until much later.
Ugh. What a horrible afternoon. I was trying to understand what they were doing with very limited examples and the docs on the classes aren't all that good. It's a mess.
Well... I think I have a lot better idea now.
