Re: [Boost-users] help figuring out msg

Can anyone help decipher this message?

The lines in this call stack have "mangled" names. For instance, _ZNSt6vectorI12lattice_typeSaIS0_EE7reserveEm + 114 designates something like vector::reserve()

Is it really trying to allocate that size? Is gcc really using malloc under all these boost code? :)

Yes, the bottom line is that it throws bad_alloc due to an attmpt to allocate a very large block. In line [12] you can see a call to boost::serialization::stl::reserve_imp >() it's called when Boost.Serialization loads your vector from a stream. However, for some reason it read an incorrect vector size -- perhaps the file is corrupted or there's some version mismatch.
