In spite of heroic efforts, we've been unable to implement "built-in" serialization for arrays for BCB compilers. If you're using BCB and you need to serialize an array you'll have to specify the loop in your class serialization code.

I'm trying to serialise arrays (boost::array, actually). There aren't any specific headers for it as there are for STL types. Could one be added at some point?

But I've run in to a more basic compilation problem under bcc32: This won't compile

#include <boost/archive/text_oarchive.hpp>

double d[3]; d[0] = 0.0; d[1] = 1.0; d[2] = 2.0; std::ofstream ofs("c:\\test.txt"); archive::text_oarchive toa(ofs); toa & d;

The error I get is

[C++ Error] interface_oarchive.hpp(105): E2031 Cannot cast from 'double *' to 'double ( &) const[3]'

Is this a problem with Borland or is my syntax for serialising arrays?

Thanks

Russell

This is problem with Borland. So far no fix was found but I have feeling it is doable. I didn't look on the library for some time but may in future. Any BCB improvements are highly welcomed by me. /Pavel
