You suggest putting everything in header file. But in the documentation example, all the code is in a demo.cpp file.Besides, i still get same error if i put function definition to header file. The only solution currently is to write all the class code in a single cpp file (without .h file). I am not much familiar with c++. But I think there must be a way of separating the declaration and definition of the template function.
Any idea?

you seem to be right.
I was using a header file for class declaration and a cpp file for
definition, when i moved everything to cpp file,
It worked.
But what is the problem? My header file contains
template<class Archive>
void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version);
and in cpp file
template<class Archive>
void g7GameObject::serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version)
{
ar & height;
ar & width;
......
} // my class name is g7GameObject
and with above code i get following error
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "private: void __thiscall
g7GameObject::serialize....
What am i doing wrong
