Re: [boost] Boost::serialize: im doing an Windows MSVC to Linux GCC port and i have a linker error (with a small example)

someone at reddit gave me at hint to use signed int for the version::value when i change the version routine in serialize_MyType.hpp to use int it links template <typename V, std::size_t D> struct version<MyType<V, D>> { // does not link //  BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT( unsigned int, value = 1 ); // links     BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT( int, value = 1 ); }; i don't understand why that is working and if that is intended - as the version seems to be given as unsigned int to the load/save routines
