Re: [Boost-users] the boost xml serialization to a stringstream does not have an end tag.

23 Jul 2008

      Just make sure that the archive is closed BEFORE the stream  - like this:

{
    std::ostream os
    {
        boost::archive::xml_oarchive(os)
        ....
    } // archive destructor writes endtag
} // stream destructor closes stream

Hi,
When I xml serialize an object to a stringstream i get the following
output
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<!DOCTYPE boost_serialization>

<bidResponse class_id="0" tracking_level="0" version="0">
       <oppId>69</oppId>
       <delay>0</delay>
       <bid class_id="1" tracking_level="0" version="0">
               <maxBid>5.3000002</maxBid>
               <minBid>5.3000002</minBid>
               <adBlob>adblob</adBlob>
       </bid>
</bidResponse>
As can be seen the end tag  is missing. thi
shappens even if I flush the stringstream.
If i xml serialize to a text file I do  not see this problem here is
the o/p when I xml serialize to a text file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<!DOCTYPE boost_serialization>

<bidRequest class_id="0" tracking_level="0" version="0">
       <oppId>34567889</oppId>
</bidRequest>
<bidRequest class_id="0" tracking_level="0" version="0">
       <oppId>44567889</oppId>
</bidRequest>

Any idea how to resolve this.
Thanks,
