Comment:

 By you answer, it does not seems to me that you have understood my
 problem. Could you please take another look (make sure you include
 serializationRegistration.cpp in your project)?

 If CLASS_EXPORT_IN_MAIN is 0 then the registration is done inside
 serializationRegistration.cpp. So this define only move the registration
 between main.cpp and serializationRegistration.cpp. It does not remove the
 registration:
 {{{
 #include "serializationClasses.hpp"

 #if !CLASS_EXPORT_IN_MAIN
   BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(Object)
   BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(Main)
 #endif
 }}}

 I don't see anything in the documentation telling me that
 BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT must be in a special file, but it must be after the
 include of archive class headers.

 Please look into order_of_static_registration_fail.txt and
 order_of_static_registration_ok.txt. You see that the files contains the
 same number of static initializations, but that the order of the function
 calls are different.
