serializing a g++ application

[jbailo]

Is it possible to serialize a g++ application so
that it preserves the state of key
variables in the executable when shut down?

Depends upon whether your objects were designed to be "serializable".
If the app wasn't specifically designed with this functionality in mind,
then the answer is "no."

C/C++ does not support the concept of "serialization" as
found in e.g. Java.
You have to write your own code that saves and restores states.
