Thanks for your reply! Yes, I did try including <boost/serialization/string.hpp>, but the error is still there. The strange thing is, I do not get this error everytime I try to serialize STL collections - it seems to pop up only in certain places.

I dont know if has anything with this error, but Have you included <boost/serialization/string.hpp> ?

Hello!

I seem to be getting the following compilation error even after I've included <boost/serialization/vector.hpp> in the source file. I'm using VS.net 7.1 to compile.

[Long dump.. UNQUOTE]

Could anyone tell me why the above is happening and how to get around the problem? I'll post the source-code if that'll help!

I also searched and stumbled into (http://lists.boost.org/boost/2005/02/19606.php) which *seems* to be saying that the issue is addressed somewhere in the serialization documentation, but was unable to locate where.

Thanks and regards, Vishnu.
