Hi, I am using the marshal module in python to save a data structure to a file. It does not appear to be portable. The data is saved on a Linux machine. Loading that same data on a Mac gives me the bad marshal data message.
Is this data really not portable or I am doing something wrong here. I thought the whole point of using Python and similar cross platform scripting languages to write once run everywhere, does that not hold for data too? Marshal should save the data in a readable text format, but I guess it does not. Any help would be appreciated, Michael -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
