serialize() in C++ ?

[Papa.Legba.666]

I use a PHP based blog system and am considering writing some offline
tools.

Does anyone know of a C++ class or function which can un/serialze()
data compatibly with PHP ?

Thanks in advance...

Hi,

I am quite unexperienced with C++, but can the PHP sourcefiles help you?

Download them at www.php.net.

unpack.
You'll find files like this:

../php-5.0.4/ext/standard/tests/serialize
../php-5.0.4/ext/standard/var_unserializer.re
../php-5.0.4/ext/standard/var_unserializer.c
../php-5.0.4/ext/standard/var_unserializer.c.orig

They contain a lot of C-code that might be of help. :-)

Here is a small piece.
They all start with including other files, you maybe you have puzzle a bit
to satify dependencies...
Maybe not. What do I know of C?
