Hi everyone.

I'm trying to work out how you serialize arrays using the boost serializer. Here's a simplified example:

   struct node_link
   {
       u32 node_A;
       u32 node_B;
   };

   struct Node {
       node_link*                  m_node_links_array;
       int                                m_node_links_size;
   };

   // non-intrusive serialization
       template<class Archive>
       void serialize(Archive & ar, node_link& link, const unsigned int version)
       {
           ar & link.node_A;
           ar & link.node_B;
       }

       template<class Archive>
       void serialize(Archive & ar, Node& node_data, const unsigned int version)
       {
           ar & boost::serialization::array<node_link>(node_data.m_node_links_array, node_data.m_node_links_size);
           ar & node_data.m_node_links_size;
       }

I'm guessing: how is deserialization of an array supposed to work, if size is deserialized afterwords?
