Re: [Boost-users] Serializing UUIDs into text archives

This looks to me to some issue with boost::io_streams.  Try your example with a regular stream (e.g. std::fostream).

Same error with a regular stream, here's the current example: #include <fstream> #include <boost/archive/text_oarchive.hpp> #include <boost/uuid/uuid_generators.hpp> #include <boost/uuid/uuid_serialize.hpp> int main() { std::vector<char> v; std::ofstream f("/tmp/foo"); boost::archive::text_oarchive oa(f); boost::uuids::uuid id = boost::uuids::random_generator()(); oa << id; return 0; } Matthias
