[MOAB-dev] iMesh/MOAB serialization

[Christopher Mueller]

Hi Tim/all,

We will be moving mesh and Tag data via messaging between processes from memory to memory. We see this as a need to marshall the imesh/moab structures in whole and in part over a message stream.  I was wondering if you could help me understand how we would go about implementing our own serialization/deserialization strategy. The src/io directory seems to be the repository of existing I/o strategies; where are the interfaces for integrating a new I/O mechanism? The messaging protocol supports the typical set container classes, and handle based referencing.

Also are there utilities for slicing (writing/reading portions of) the mesh?

Thanks in advance,
Chris
