A particular test in the serialization library spontaneously has broken. By "spontaneously" I mean that I haven't checked anything in lately. The test is test_array_xml_warchive in the serialization library test matrix. Here are a few facts: a) I haven't checked anything in so the serialization library itself hasn't changed. b) It occurs on all GCC platforms. c) it "seems" to have started around 30 November d) it occurs only on the trunk - all these tests have been run since 30 November e) it doesn't occur on the release branch - none of these tests run since 30 November f) it occours on my development machine. Note that I use release branch for all testing - except for the serialization library itself which I use the trunk version. g) The nature of the error suggests that it is related to memory allocation/deallocation
From all of the above I'm looking at change on the release branch #81635 (or there abouts) by glenfe
Merged revision(s) 81608-81610 from trunk: Optimization: Add specializations of make_array_helper, allocate_array_helper, and array_deleter for fixed size arrays to avoid storing size. ........ Consistent formatting across overloads of make_shared and allocate_shared (array forms). ........ More consistency in type parameters in helper details of allocate_shared and make_shared. ... Does anyone have any insight into this? Robert Ramey
