Hmmm, maybe this cast should be in serialize/list.hpp ?
Try adding this cast to your personal copy of serialization/list.hpp and see if that addresses the problem. Let me know if that does it.
Should it not be in shared_ptr serialize method? The type is list<shared_ptr<const T> > You get the same problem with shared_ptr<const T> which can't be written. So if you have a member e.g. shared_ptr<const MyClass_c> m_MyClass; The the actual member isn't const, it is a shared_ptr, but the thing it points to is a const object so shouldn't shared_ptr serialize do a const_cast on its underlying pointer? If it were a const shared_ptr<T> then I agree that it should be in serialize/list.hpp (or probably an base header of this as the actual serialization doesn't seem to be done there) Thanks Russell
