Re: [boost] [1.39.0] Beta candidate

25 Apr 2009

      Hi Troy,

gdb reports:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007ffff60274b8 in
boost::serialization::void_cast_detail::void_caster::recursive_unregister()
const ()
   from /opt/boost139/lib/libboost_serialization-gcc43-mt-1_39.so.1.39.0

More (albeit IMHO not very helpful) details from the backtrace can be found
at the end of this post. Somehow looks like an infinite recursion ?

Note that I can of course not rule out a problem in my own code. However,
this "feels" like the pre-1.38 problem in that it does not affect the
runtime behaviour of my programs (nor of the library's tests) and that the
segfault happens after the last statement in main(). And as I said, the
code runs fine with 1.38 .

Best Regards,
Ruediger

I remember that one, it was nasty.  Looks like some work has been done
in there since 1.38:
http://sodium.resophonic.com/git/boost/commit/?h=release&id=c7e977901094b902b12937dda9994593dbafdc43
...
I haven't taken a close look, but this looks a little suspicious:
http://sodium.resophonic.com/git/boost/diff/libs/serialization/src/extended_type_info_typeid.cpp?h=release&id=c7e977901094b902b12937dda9994593dbafdc43

A backtrace would be helpful...

This goes on forever. I have stopped looking at #3265 of gdb's backtrace.
