[Boost-users] problem for serialization to build project [no rtti] on release mode

10 May 2007

      Hi

Background: 1_33_1
Example : boost_1_33_1\libs\serialization\vc6ide\test_no_rtti

I can run the example successfully on Debug mode with no warning and no 
error.

However, it has several warnings, abnormal operation and memory leak when 
running on release mode.

The following is the warnings:

d:\barr\serialization\boost\boost_1_33_1_bk\boost\smart_cast.hpp(200): 
warning C4541: 'dynamic_cast' used on polymorphic type 'polymorphic_base' 
with /GR-; unpredictable behavior may result
d:\barr\serialization\boost\boost_1_33_1_bk\boost\smart_cast.hpp(200): 
warning C4541: 'dynamic_cast' used on polymorphic type 'polymorphic_base' 
with /GR-; unpredictable behavior may result
        ..\..\..\boost\smart_cast.hpp(230) : see reference to function 
template instantiation 'T 
boost::smart_cast_impl::pointer<T>::polymorphic::cast(const U *)' being 
compiled
        with
        [
            T=const polymorphic_derived2 *,
            U=type
        ]
        ..\..\..\boost\smart_cast.hpp(286) : see reference to function 
template instantiation 'T boost::smart_cast_impl::pointer<T>::cast(const U 
*)' being compiled
        with
        [
            T=const polymorphic_derived2 *,
            U=type
        ]
        ..\..\..\boost\serialization\void_cast.hpp(136) : see reference to 
function template instantiation 'T boost::smart_cast<polymorphic_derived2 
const *,polymorphic_base const *>(U)' being compiled
        with
        [
            T=const polymorphic_derived2 *,
            U=const type *
        ]
        ..\..\..\boost\serialization\void_cast.hpp(133) : while compiling 
class-template member function 'const void 
*boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster_primitive<Derived,Base>::downcast(const 
void *) const'
        with
        [
            Derived=const polymorphic_derived2,
            Base=const type
        ]
        ..\..\..\boost\serialization\void_cast.hpp(191) : see reference to 
class template instantiation 
'boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster_primitive<Derived,Base>' 
being compiled
        with
        [
            Derived=const polymorphic_derived2,
            Base=const type
        ]
        ..\..\..\boost\serialization\base_object.hpp(107) : see reference to 
function template instantiation 'const 
boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster 
&boost::serialization::void_cast_register(const Derived *,const type *)' 
being compiled
        with
        [
            Derived=polymorphic_derived2
        ]
        ..\..\..\boost\serialization\base_object.hpp(103) : while compiling 
class
d:\barr\serialization\boost\boost_1_33_1_bk\boost\serialization\extended_type_info_typeid.hpp(92): 
warning C4541: 'typeid' used on polymorphic type 'polymorphic_derived2' with 
/GR-; unpredictable behavior may result

Then the following is the console output after invoking the release exe 
file:

Running 1 test case...
unknown location(0): fatal error in "test_main_caller( argc, argv )": 
std::bad_typeid: Bad read pointer - no RTTI data!

*** errors detected in test suite "Test Program"; see standard output for 
details
Detected memory leaks!
Dumping objects ->
{263} normal block at 0x00983EA8, 4 bytes long.
Data: <D E > 44 D1 45 00
Object dump complete.

What should I do to make the release mode run correctly?

Best regards
