[Boost-users] static assertion in date_serialization_demo

Hi,

I've tried to build this simple code using vc 7.1

using namespace boost::gregorian;

date d(2004, Apr, 5);
std::ofstream ofs("date_demo.txt");
boost::archive::text_oarchive oa(ofs);
oa << d;

but it fails due to a static assertion. The code is taken from the very
first lines of boost_serialization_demo.cpp. It seems to compile with boost
1.32, but seems to fail with current boost.

Since this demo is not be included in the jamfile (or I was not able to find
it), I built it is using visual studio IDE.

The compiler command-line options were:
/Od /D "WIN32" /D "_DEBUG" /D "_CONSOLE" /D "_MBCS" /Gm /EHsc /RTC1 /MLd
/Fo"Debug/" /Fd"Debug/vc70.pdb" /W3 /nologo /c /Wp64 /ZI /TP

I also tried to turn on/off the RTTI, but the result did not change.

The error I get is
d:\PROJECTS\boost\boost\archive\detail\oserializer.hpp(557) : error
C2027: use of undefined type 'boost::STATIC_ASSERTION_FAILURE<x>'

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
  Paolo
