I am trying to test the following sample code which explains how to serialize a user defined primitive type class in boost,it works fine.But if I switch to polymorphic_archive (testing with polymorphic_text_*) which I will have to use in my project, it fails to compile and I am struggling to fix it(testing in vc++2008).
All the code can be found in the below 3 links: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/libs/serialization/test/test_primitive.cpp http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/libs/serialization/test/test_tools.hpp and libs/1_46_1/libs/serialization/test/text_archive.hpp
Please change the headers and typedefs in the text_archive.hpp to polymorphic ones as follows to get the error:
#include <boost/archive/polymorphic_text_oarchive.hpp>
typedef boost::archive::polymorphic_text_oarchive test_oarchive;
#include <boost/archive/polymorphic_text_iarchive.hpp>
typedef boost::archive::polymorphic_text_iarchive test_iarchive;
