Reading VC ++ CArchive binary format (or reading Java (CObArray))

Question

Is there clear documentation on the binary formats used to serialize the various MFC data structures? I managed to view some of my own classes in a hex editor and use the Java ByteBuffer class to read them (with automatic conversions, etc.).

However, I am currently encountering problems when trying to pass CObArray data, as it seems to be a rather opaque header, and it is unclear how this information about the type of object is stored.

Is there a set of online documentation that would be useful for this? Or some Java code example from someone who has dealt with this in the past?
