I am saving multiple classes which contain STL collections, and in turn those STL collections contain classes that contain more STL collections. A sample XML file follows.
The problem occurs when I try and move the XML file into a database, and I receive the error "The table (item) cannot be the child table to itself in nested relations."
I'm not sure I understand what the problem is. Is the generated XML file well-formed ? Is it valid, according to whatever document-type definition might exist ? It sounds as if your database imposes additional constraints (unrelated to XML), that are not met by the XML-generation of boost.serialization. If that's the case, may be you can post-process the XML by renaming certain nodes (using an XSLT transformation, say) ? Regards, Stefan -- ...ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin...
