Saving content of large structure

Question

I have a really big data structure with a lot of fields in it.

I want to save its fields to later compare with later values; but I can't print the content to console, because it's too much code to write by hand. (I have roughly 1k fields.)

How should I solve my problem?

Answer 1

write the stricture to a file and use some good diff tools.

Answer 2

Use serialization: some tutorial here or here.
