I have been having some issues trying to get this relatively simple binary memory based serialization to work.<br>If I use a byte type below, I get errors with not finding a matching ctor:<br>If I use a char, it compiles and thows an exception in &nbsp; binary_iarchive_impl.hpp at line 52:
<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; this-&gt;basic_binary_iarchive&lt;Archive&gt;::init();<br><br>which appears to be related to char string processing.<br><br>can anyone help me sort this out?<br><br>thanks<br>Rich<br><br>&nbsp;<br>
