Hi,
I'm trying to read a binary archive with version 1.44 that was written with
version 1.43. I have created bug report (Ticket #4660). Below It is short summury (https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4660#comment:7): 1) serialization 1.44 can not work with old version of binary archives. So backward compatibility was ruined. 2) format of binary archive in version 1.44 was changed, so version 1.43 (and below) does not work with new archive. And now we have 2 different incompatible version of native binary archive (before 1.44 and 1.44). Text archive does not have this problem So implementation of serialization in 1.44 is broken. I think this problem must be resolved ASAP. I think users must be informed about these problem with serialization and users must do not use this version in production code. May be we need 1.44.1 version? Sergey Voropaev
