[Boost-users] How to override the init() in the xml serialization library..

Hi, I have a need to be able to specify my own init routine for the xml serialization. I tried deriving a new archive from xml_oarchive_impl and tried to have a init() function there but that does not get invoked. I am using boost serialization library ver 1.32. The xml that is generated by the library is malformed. It generates the following line without corresponding end tag <boost_serialization signature="serialization::archive" version="3"> There is no </boost_serialization> in the o/p xml. Also my requiremet is that I do not generate this tag. Thanks, Sangeeta
