That's the same problem I mentioned today in another post; in a simple test case I could solve the problem with the attached patch. However, I am not going to pretend that I understand how all the specializations and explicit instantiations in the export machinery interact. And I didn't have time yet to run a more complex test or the regression tests against the patched version.

I have run the regression test suite and my patch makes the test_exported_*_archive tests indeed pass. Unfortunately, I see new failures in the test_level_class_info_load_*_archive test that http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-Linux.html (dated 2004-08-12) reports as passing. The test output does not tell me much: serialization - test_level_class_info_load_binary_archive - gcc Linker output: Chmod1 ../bin/boost/libs/serialization/test/test_level_class_info_load_binary_archive.test/gcc/debug/test_level_class_info_load_binary_archive Run output: Exception in "call_test_main": std::exception: stream error *** errors detected in test case "call_test_main"; see standard output for details Test case "call_test_main" was aborted due to uncaught exception, user assert or system error EXIT STATUS: 200 Regards Christoph -- http://www.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/TI/Mitarbeiter/cludwig.html LiDIA: http://www.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/TI/LiDIA/Welcome.html
