Is there a library available that allows via config the deep copy of C++ attributes to other C++ objects.

Question

Hi,

I was wondering is there a component or library like Dozer for C++.

Dozer is a Java Object to Java Object mapper that recursively copies data from one object to another. Typically, these Java Objects will be of different complex types.

Dozer supports simple property mapping, complex type mapping, bi-directional mapping, implicit-explicit mapping, as well as recursive mapping. This includes mapping collection attributes that also need mapping at the element level.

Thanks in advance, Z

Unlike Java, C++ doesn't have reflection. So this sort of thing isn't possible in general.
