Tell me how much time did you spent on a search engine to find your answer.
In technical terms, 'saving' is known as
serialization[1]
There are plenty of libraries out there to serialize STL containers. You are fortunate enough that
Boost's Serialization Library is there on your demand.
Another library is provided on CodeProject
But I would suggest you to use
this tool and find the best library for you, yourself.
[1] serialization is actually the process of converting an object into a sequence of bits so that it can be persisted on a storage medium (such as a file, or a memory buffer) or transmitted across a network connection link.
