How does it fail? Does it fail to compile? Does it give an exception? If so which one. If it fails with text or binary archive, does it also fail on xml archives? that would be useful information.
I'll try to get together a complete test case by this evening.
Below is test code that shows the problem. It is working with text and failing with XML serialization --- perhaps I'm simply not understanding something else that I need to do, though we are using XML serialization extensively. The text serialization produces this as output: 22 serialization::archive 3 0 0 10 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 9 The XML serialization produces this as output: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> <!DOCTYPE boost_serialization> <boost_serialization signature="serialization::archive" version="3"> <buff class_id="0" tracking_level="0" version="0"> <std::vector<T>> <count>10</count> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> <item>0</item> </std::vector<T>> <_first_ind>0</_first_ind> <_last_ind>9</_last_ind> </buff> Following my sig is the code. The failure cases fail during the load.
