Hello Everyone, here is my problem and I'm considering to use factory method in C++, what are your opinions ?

There are a Base Class and a lot of Subclasses.

I need to transfer objects on network via TCP.

I will create objects in first side, and using this object I will create a byte array TCP message, and send it to other side.

On the other side I will decompose TCP message, I will create object and I will add this object to a polymorphic queue.
