Hi Jeff,

 

I installed Boost 1.32 on my computer (Windows Server 2003 and Visual
Studio .NET 2003). A directory: \boost_1_32_0 was created. In
\boost_1_32_0\libs\serialization\vc7ide, I found the projects for
building serialization library and test examples. I can build the
library (libboost_serialization.lib) and examples, and they run well.
All examples are Windows console applications. 

 

Then I created an MFC application, linked it with the library. In
Document class, I did a test similar to the one presented in
demo_xml.cpp and demo_xml.hpp:

 

... 

 

#include "stdafx.h"

#include "MFCTests.h"

#include "MFCTestsDoc.h"

#include <iostream>

#include <sstream>

#include <string>

#include <boost/archive/tmpdir.hpp>

#include <boost/archive/xml_oarchive.hpp>

 

#include "demo_xml.hpp"

 

....

 

void CMFCTestsDoc::OnTestSerialize()

{

    bus_stop *bs0 = new bus_stop_corner(

        gps_position(34, 135, 52.560f),

        gps_position(134, 22, 78.30f),

        "24th Street", "10th Avenue"

    );

 

    std::string filename(boost::archive::tmpdir());

    filename += "/demo.xml";

 

    std::ofstream ofs(filename.c_str());

    assert(ofs.good());

    boost::archive::xml_oarchive oa(ofs);

    oa << BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(*bs0); 

 

        ...

}

 

Execution fails in last statement with message:

 

Unhandled exception at 0x77e55dea in MFCTests.exe: Microsoft C++
exception: __non_rtti_object @ 0x0012e800.

 

The build was debug build, application and library were build with
runtime library option "Multi-threaded Debug (/MTd)". I tried to use
different options such as "Multi-threaded Debug DLL (/MDd)", it failed
the same way.

 

In MSDN
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dv_vst
echart/html/boostvc.asp), it discussed Boost for Visual Studio C++. It
stated that Boost works well with VC++ 7.1. Of course we know it doesn't
work well with previous VC++ such as VC++ 6.0 which I tried and failed
badly.

 

Thanks,

 

Yan

Yan,

 

I extensively use boost 1.32 serialization in MFC projects with no
problems. You'll need to provide more info on your problem: some code,
exact error messages, etc. 

 

So is Boost really mentioned in MSDN?

        I installed Boost 1.32 in Windows with Visual Studio .NET 2003.
I tested serialization provided in "vc7ide" project, it runs
successfully. Of course, all test projects are "Console", no MFC library
involved. Then I used the same library in MFC project, the execution
failed in function:

         

        BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(s)

         

        From MSDN, it was said that Boost is supported in Visual Studio
.NET 2003. I labored a week to upgrade our MFC project to Visual Studio
.NET 2003 and it still has problem. Any idea? Thanks in advance.
