Here are the changes I made. This makes it save but more changes would have to be made in order to load. Robert Ramey "Pyush Agrawal" wrote in message news:f7a7f9d105092708436724b870@mail.gmail.com... Two Problems: Firstly---> I made the changes you had suggested and it did not work for me. The compilation fails with "C:\ai\src\external\boost133\boost\archive\basic_xml_oarchive.hpp(86): error C2027: use of undefined type 'boost::STATIC_ASSERTION_FAILURE<x>'". Do I have to define a name-value pair?? If you're using an XML archive, you have to use nvp to assign a name tag to every datum. (Refer to my previous boost users mailing list posting). Is it possible for you to attach the cpp code that you compiled and tested (I just want to make sure that I am not doing something stupid). Secondly----> The output that you had attached just serializes the 'base' object and does not serialize the 'derived' object. I thought the result should have been serialized 'derived' object. Is my understanding wrong? Pyush "Robert Ramey" wrote in message news:dhalo7$p1u$1@sea.gmane.org...

I just changed

template inline void save(Archive& ar, derived<T>& obj, const unsigned int version) {

to template inline void save(Archive& ar, const nderived<T>& obj, const unsigned int version) {

at line # 91,

and I removed the l // from line #85

compiled and ran with VC 7.1 Seemed to work find. the output was:

------ Build started: Project: test_zexp, Configuration: Debug runtime-dynamic text_archive Win32 ------ Linking... Creating library c:\BoostMainCVS\libs\serialization\vc7ide\../../../bin/boost/libs/serialization/test/test_zexp_text_archive.test/vc-7_1/debug/threading-multi//test_zexp.lib and object c:\BoostMainCVS\libs\serialization\vc7ide\../../../bin/boost/libs/serialization/test/test_zexp_text_archive.test/vc-7_1/debug/threading-multi//test_zexp.exp run test_zexp with Debug runtime-dynamic text_archive base: Save derived<T>::Serialize <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> <!DOCTYPE boost_serialization> <originalObject class_id="0" tracking_level="0" version="0"> <temp>100</temp> </originalObject>

which looks correct to me.
