[Boost-users] Re: Re: Boost.Serialization 1.32 trouble reading back an object first serialized in an std::vector then by pointer

This macro is used to serialize to xml_?archive. The macro is short hand for a name/value pair. The name part is used in the xml tag when and xml archive is saved/loaded. Its explained in the manual in the section which describes xml archives and serialization wrappers. Robert Ramey Olivier Vanden Bos wrote:

What is BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP ? I use a lot the serialization with all STL containers possible and much more complex example than that, i have no pb... (perhaps too complex for the Vc7.1 compiler..) But i never use this macro....

I'll look at this. Give me a couple of days.

I'm evaluating the Boost.Serialization for use internal use as an interchange format between a number of loose knit projects, and I've run into a bit of trouble.

I'm using Vc 7.1 in Visual Studio .NET 2003.

It seems to me that, if I serialize an object first in an std::vector, and then serialize it later by pointer, that there is trouble reading it back.

I boiled down the reproduction case to as little code as possible below.

When newPolygon (below) is loaded from the archive, I get a bogus pointer for m_pLastVertex. If I serialize using a binary archive, I hit an assert in basic_iarchive.cpp line 371:

assert(new_cid == cid);

Where cid is 576 and new_cid is 2.

Any help with this would be appriciated,

Thanks in advance, -james conrad
