Hi all. 

I've to serialize a structure that has as attributes two structures. 
An example is: 
struct Example{
Container* results_container;
MyMap this_is_a_map;
        Example(){}
        ...
        ...
};

where Container* is a pointer to another struct, defined by me, and MyMap is a c++ map. 

I've tried to serialize it using the shared_ptr example of boost serialization: 

struct Example{
friend class boost::serialization::access;
        template<class Archive>
        void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int /* file_version */){
}
        Container* results_container;
MyMap this_is_a_map;
        Example(){}
        ...
        ...
};


and in the main i call: 


boost::shared_ptr<Example> myExample(new Example);
...
        ...
// serialize it
    {
        std::ofstream ofs(filename.c_str());
        boost::archive::text_oarchive oa(ofs);
        oa << myExample;
        
    }
boost::shared_ptr<Example> myNewExample(new Example);
    {
        // open the archive
        std::ifstream ifs(filename.c_str());
        boost::archive::text_iarchive ia(ifs);

        // restore the schedule from the archive
        ia >> myNewExample;
        
    }

Now myNewExample is a well format instance of Example, but the attributes are empty. Can anyone help me?
I would not have to change all files with nested structures, as are many, not just two as in the example

Thanks all.

Marco.
