Re: [Boost-users] [Serialization] error C2027: use of undefined type 'boost::serialization::extended_type_info_null<T>'?

Ok, I got past the errors I was having last night.  Seemed to have to do
with the ordering of the libraries and then an incorrect constant used
in the load method.

Moving on, I now get the following linker errors:

Debug/SerializationDemo.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 4 unresolved

However, if I change the build type to not be unicode, then it all
compiles, links, and works.

I checked to see what libraries are being linked in a non- unicode build
vs. a unicode:

 

Non-Unicode:

 

Linking to lib file: libboost_serialization-vc71-sgd-1_33_1.lib // Good

Linking to lib file: libboost_serialization-vc71-sgd-1_33_1.lib // Good

 

Unicode:

 

Linking to lib file: libboost_wserialization-vc71-sgd-1_33_1.lib // Good

Linking to lib file: libboost_serialization-vc71-sgd-1_33_1.lib // Why??

Linking to lib file: libboost_serialization-vc71-sgd-1_33_1.lib // Why??

 

Any ideas?  Does the boost serialization possibly have unicode issues in
1.33.1?

Thanks in advance,
