There are several tests in the library which use std::string and std::wstring. Do these compile? string and wstring are typedefs for basic_string and basic_string. If you use basic_string you might need in explicitly instantiated something. Look at how serialization of std:string is implemented/instantiated.

If I pass "basic_string<char>", with the default allocator, it works fine. But if I pass it with my own allocator it fails. /Jacob Holm On Fri, Oct 31, 2008 at 8:07 AM, Jacob Holm wrote:

I have tried string, and that works fine. I'll take a look again at the implementation. Thanks!

I looked up the typedef of string; *typedef basic_string string; * Then made my own typedef; *typedef basic_string ** stringWithAllocator; * ..and registered this with boost in the string.hpp; *BOOST_CLASS_IMPLEMENTATION(stringWithAllocator, boost::serialization::primitive_type)* ** Then the code compiles, but serialization does not work. It seems the allocator is part of the object when serialized, and since the allocator has members the size is being calculated wrong. I did a work around using a *std::vector. *This is not as smooth, but does the job. /Jacob Holm On Fri, Oct 31, 2008 at 6:38 PM, Robert Ramey wrote:

basic_string with your own allocator is not the same type as basic_string with the default allocator.

Look at hos serialization of std::string is implemented and make your own using that as an example.
