    Default Serialization two vectors that are in a structure

    Hi,
    How do I overload the << >> functions to be able to serialize the vectors?
    The struct is the next one:

    struct realDataValue{
    QVector<double> xValueVector;
    QVector<double> yValueVector;
    bool operator==(const realDataValue &other) const
    {
    return xValueVector==other.xValueVector && yValueVector==other.yValueVector;
    }
    };

    Thanks a lot.

    QVector<T> already has an implementation for serialization to a QDataStream via non-menber functions operator>> and operator<<. Do you need to serialize to some different kind of stream?

    Thanks for answering
    I need serialization of variables type QString and double.
    I have already used the following code
    inline QDataStream & operator << (QDataStream & outStream, const realDataValue & mRealDataValue)
    {
    return outStream << mRealDataValue.xValueVector << mRealDataValue.yValueVector;
    }

    but when reading a QVector <QString> or QVector <double> of a stream it sends me an error, "invalid operands to binary expression (QDataStream and const QVector <QString>)

    inline QDataStream & operator >> (QDataStream & outStream, const realDataValue & mRealDataValue)
    {
    return outStream >> mRealDataValue.xValueVector >> mRealDataValue.yValueVector;
    }

    thanks

    because in your operator>> method, you have declared the realDataValue argument as "const". You can't modify a const reference.
