#4373: object tracking not working when pointer is serialized before class member
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: anonymous | Owner: ramey

Milestone: Boost 1.44.0 | Component: serialization
Version: Boost 1.44.0 | Severity: Problem

--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
I'm not sure if this is a bug or a limitation of Boost.Serialization.
I haven't found anything in the documentation saying that this limitation
exists though.
it's certainly unexpected if you don't think about serilization internals:
struct B{
//Serializable
};
struct A{
B *bptr;
B b;
template<class Archive>
void serialize(Archive &ar,unsigned int){
ar & bptr; //error
ar & b;
}
};
if bptr is pointing to b, the object can not be loaded correctly. I'm not
sure what actually happens, I guess there is a duplicate created, but bptr
isnt equal to &b after serialization, as it was before serialization.
b must be serialized before bptr for this to work.
testcase attached.
