Macros

#define CEREAL_THREAD_SAFE 0
Whether cereal should be compiled for a threaded environment. #define CEREAL_SIZE_TYPE uint64_t
Determines the data type used for size_type. #define CEREAL_SERIALIZE_FUNCTION_NAME serialize
The serialization/deserialization function name to search for. #define CEREAL_LOAD_FUNCTION_NAME load
The deserialization (load) function name to search for. #define CEREAL_SAVE_FUNCTION_NAME save
The serialization (save) function name to search for. #define CEREAL_LOAD_MINIMAL_FUNCTION_NAME load_minimal
The deserialization (load_minimal) function name to search for. #define CEREAL_SAVE_MINIMAL_FUNCTION_NAME save_minimal
The serialization (save_minimal) function name to search for. #define CEREAL_NOEXCEPT
Defines the CEREAL_NOEXCEPT macro to use instead of noexcept. #define CEREAL_ALIGNOF alignof
Checks if C++14 is available.

#define CEREAL_ALIGNOF alignof

Checks if C++14 is available. Checks if C++17 is available NOTE: clang v5 has a bug with inline variables, so disable C++17 on that compiler Defines the CEREAL_ALIGNOF macro to use instead of alignof

#define CEREAL_LOAD_FUNCTION_NAME load

The deserialization (load) function name to search for. You can define CEREAL_LOAD_FUNCTION_NAME to be different assuming you do so before this file is included.

#define CEREAL_LOAD_MINIMAL_FUNCTION_NAME load_minimal

The deserialization (load_minimal) function name to search for. You can define CEREAL_LOAD_MINIMAL_FUNCTION_NAME to be different assuming you do so before this file is included.

#define CEREAL_NOEXCEPT

Defines the CEREAL_NOEXCEPT macro to use instead of noexcept. If a compiler we support does not support noexcept, this macro will detect this and define CEREAL_NOEXCEPT as a no-op

#define CEREAL_SAVE_FUNCTION_NAME save

The serialization (save) function name to search for. You can define CEREAL_SAVE_FUNCTION_NAME to be different assuming you do so before this file is included.

#define CEREAL_SAVE_MINIMAL_FUNCTION_NAME save_minimal

The serialization (save_minimal) function name to search for. You can define CEREAL_SAVE_MINIMAL_FUNCTION_NAME to be different assuming you do so before this file is included.

#define CEREAL_SERIALIZE_FUNCTION_NAME serialize

The serialization/deserialization function name to search for. You can define CEREAL_SERIALIZE_FUNCTION_NAME to be different assuming you do so before this file is included.

#define CEREAL_SIZE_TYPE uint64_t

Determines the data type used for size_type. cereal uses size_type to ensure that the serialized size of dynamic containers is compatible across different architectures (e.g. 32 vs 64 bit), which may use different underlying types for std::size_t.

More information can be found in cereal/details/helpers.hpp.

If you choose to modify this type, ensure that you use a fixed size type (e.g. uint32_t).

#define CEREAL_THREAD_SAFE 0

Whether cereal should be compiled for a threaded environment. This macro causes cereal to use mutexes to control access to global internal state in a thread safe manner.

Note that even with this enabled you must still ensure that archives are accessed by only one thread at a time; it is safe to use multiple archives in parallel, but not to access one archive from many places simultaneously.
