CArchive is a temporary buffer area for handling datas
between CMap and CFile. The datas from the user are first
entered in CMap and then from this CMap, they are stored to
CFile through CArchive Class, while closing the application.
When opening the application the datas from CFile are
loaded into CMap through CArchive.
At first CFile should be opened or created before creating
instance for CArchive. After transferring of datas between
CMap and CArchive, CArchive instance should be closed first
before closing the CFile. The vice-versa action will
results in crashing of application.

CArchive does not have a base class.archive object as a
kind of binary stream
You must create a CFile object before you can create a
CArchive object.
When you construct a CArchive object, you attach it to an
object of class CFile (or a derived class) that represents
an open file.
CArchive also supports programming with the MFC Windows
Sockets classes CSocket and CSocketFile. The IsBufferEmpty
member function supports that usage.

CArchive does not have a base class.
Later you can load the objects from persistent storage, reconstituting them in memory. This process of making data persistent is called "serialization."
You can think of an archive object as a kind of binary stream. Like an input/output stream, an archive is associated with a file and permits the buffered writing and reading of data to and from storage. An input/output stream processes sequences of ASCII characters, but an archive processes binary object data in an efficient, nonredundant format.
You must create a CFile object before you can create a CArchive object.
