Hi

Im using boost (version 1.47), to serialize a wide variaty of objects (include the stl containers vector and map). All the things are working fine exept from a memory leaks that I (=the memory tool that I work with) detected in the boost code.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks In Advance

Just file a bug report for the benefit of all. Here's the bug reporting procedure: http://www.boost.org/support/bugs.html

when you do this, please make sure you make a small test case and quadruple check that your leak detection tool is accurate. Also note that deserializing a pointer creates a new pointer that has to be managed. In particular, the tutorial example suffers from exactly this problem. If you build and run this demo you should see this. I left this in the demo because adding the memory management in to the tutorial demo would make it more complicated. I'm going to make an educated guess that you've overlooked this aspect of pointer de-serialization - which is very easy to do. Robert Ramey
