ANN - Artificial Neural Network training

I know that is possible to save a trained ANN into a file using CvFileStorage, but I really don't like the way that CvFileStorage saves the training, then I was wondering: Is that possible to retrieve the informations of a training and save it in a custom way?

Thanks in advance.

Just look at xml structure, it's very simple. The names of objects are the same as in ANN class. Here is a XOR solving network:

You can save the same parameters to you oun formated file. Some of the fields are protected, but you can make child class from CvANN_MLP and make your oun file saver.
