"Permanent" data storage?

[EvanPlett]

I am writing a program that has many variables, probably 40ish of them, ranging from booleans to colors to time. I need to be able to save these variables so that when the user reopens the program they can reload the data. I have tried using the writepriviteprofileint type methods, but that method is get very cumbersome due to the amount of info I need to store. I know that in Java you can just like save a class, is there anything similar to that in C++ or any other good way to store a bunch of different variables. I am using a shared memory class to save all of my variables. If it matters, I am using the MFC library for my visual stuff.

Thanks,
Evan Plett

In MFC, you can use serialization with the CArchive class. You can also save the data to an xml file.

Thanks, I think that is exactly what I was looking for.
