With the last change I made in the serialization library, the only missing symbols are void_upcast and void_downcast. the *.cpp files which defiine these functions to indeed define BOOST_SERIALIZATION_SOURCE so these symbols should be exported. I'm trying go figure out why this is not happening. Including define BOOST_SERIALIZATION_SOURCE in a different file can't be the solution - the fact that it seems to work can only be a hint as to what the problem is. Still thanks for the insight.
Which compiler/platform is this? I just tried Trunk with Mingw-gcc-4.5.0 and everything that should pass did.
Hmmm - I'm looking at the test matrix for RW_Mingw45 and 1 MinGW-32 jc-bell.com as well as track item #4375 - these are all failing. It looks to me that there are only a couple of undefined symbols because the serialization autolink code is being enabled by BOOST_HAS_DECL which is now being used to enable "visibility". This is likely even more confused as I believe I've used this or something like it to trick the compiler/linker into suppressing code stripping of code not otherwise explicitly referred to. I see now that this has been in the works for some time and is not something new. So it would seem that I can move my current trunk over to the release branch and worry about this later. Robert Ramey
