There is a confusion here. Check the manual section titled "Class Versioning"
There should be something like:
BOOST_CLASS_VERSION(Test_c, 99)
in your code. I don't remember what the maximum class version might be but it could be small like 255 for binary archives.
I did ask about this in the previous e-mail. I thought non-primitive types were, by default, versioned, i.e. if no BOOST_CLASS_VERSION is specified, they have a version of 0. Is this not the case? Anyway, the code I posted still gives odd results if I set BOOST_CLASS_VERSION(Test_c, 0). Anything but 0 works, but zero gives the effects described previously, a 3 on the way back in, which is your archive version, not the class version. Again, specifying no version works for text archives (haven't checked binary) but not for XML. Thanks Russell
