Comment(by anonymous):

 There is no problem saving, but loading. The output XML looks fine.

 But when loading a derived from std::wstring/string class, the loading
 ''template specialization'' is not contemplated, and the operator>> on the
 stream is called as if it were an int, float, any non-specialized type.

 I.e.: Instead of calling the loading function for the parameter wstring&,
 it calls the generic one.

 There could be a class implementation that was primitive_string, besides
 primitive, to allow for customized std::string/wstring
