I have tested successfully with pointers to classes but have not been able to get pointers to non-polymorphic serialized. Is this a known issue?

Pointers to primitives are not tracked. See implementation level. If you really need to do this, use BOOST_STRONG_TYPEDEF to make a type which is not primitive. Check the documentation regarding serialization traits.

Thanks, that worked. I added a non-intrusive serilaze() function because I didn't want to mess with the macro, below is what I used for 'int' //// BOOST_STRONG_TYPEDEF(int, int_type) // serialize function for int_type namespace boost { namespace serialization { template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive & ar, int_type & g, const unsigned int version) { ar & make_nvp("value", g.t); } } // namespace serialization } // Joe
