Building a Win32 console app, the following code compiles just fine:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <boost/archive/text_oarchive.hpp>
#include <fstream>

class SomeClass
{
public:
    SomeClass() : m_foo(666), m_bar(777.f) {}

private:
    friend class boost::serialization::access;
    template<class Archive>
    void serialize(Archive& archive, const unsigned int version)
    {
        archive & m_foo;
        archive & m_bar;
    }

    int m_foo;
    float m_bar;
};

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
    SomeClass someClass;
    std::ofstream fileStream("TestFile.object");
    boost::archive::text_oarchive oa(fileStream);
    oa << someClass;

    return 0;
}

but if I include xml_oarchive.hpp and create an xml_oarchive object, just changing the include statement and the type of oa, I get the following error:

>c:\program files (x86)\boost\boost_1_36_0\boost\archive\basic_xml_oarchive.hpp(88) : error C2664: 'boost::mpl::assertion_failed' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'boost::mpl::failed ************boost::serialization::is_wrapper<T>::* ***********' to 'boost::mpl::assert<false>::type'

Basically, I can't archive into XML. Can someone please explain what I am doing wrong? I am using Windows Vista, Visual Studio 2008 and boost v36,

Thanks
