I believe I was asked this in the Stack Overflow question I linked as well. Assuming that all the .lib files in the stage/lib folders are the built libraries (I could be wrong so please correct me if that is the case), and assuming that libboost_serialization-vc100-mt-1_47.lib or libboost_serialization-vc100-mt-gd-1_47.lib are the libraries I need, I believe that both of the latter things you mentioned are satisfied.

To the point: I'm having issues trying to get the wide character version of Boost's serialization libaries working. When I attempt to compile the result is a multitude of Linker errors. After Googling failed to turn up anything I posted the question on Stack Overflow, where a reply suggested there may be 'a bug in Boost.Serialization'. Stack Overflow features nice syntax highlighting so it is easy to see the code, I pieced it together from other normal character examples: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10439984/serialization-example-of-boost-a rchive-binary-woarchive-hpp-and-or-boost-archive http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10439984/serialization-example-of -boost-archive-binary-woarchive-hpp-and-or-boost-archive> If there is a rule against posting external links, I apologise. Or if people want me to paste the code directly in to an email for this mailing list I will do so. The Stack Overflow question was originally based on my thought that I had made a mistake in my code. If this IS the case then I do apologise, and I would appreciate knowing just where I've gone wrong.
