[Boost-users] Serialization of heterogeneous sequence using shared_ptr<void>

Dear All, I'm trying to figure out if something like the below is possible with the serialization library. The idea is to serialize a heterogeneous sequence using shared_pointer<void>. thanks for any help Sean void hetero_sequence() { // create and open a character archive for output std::ofstream ofs("dictionary.pickle"); boost::archive::text_oarchive oa(ofs); std::deque<boost::shared_ptr<void> > sequence; sequence.push_back(boost::shared_ptr<string>(new string("random string"))); sequence.push_back(boost::shared_ptr<double>(new double(3.1415627))); sequence.push_back(boost::shared_ptr<bool>(new bool(false))); // write class instance to archive oa << sequence; // close archive ofs.close(); }
