[Boost-users] Serialization recursive include problem

Hi,

   I am using the boost serialization library in a personal project and ran
into a recursive include problem. Class A serialize an object of class B and
class B also serialize an object of class A. So class A must be a complete
type in class B and class B must be a complete type in class A, hence the
recursive include problem. A easy way to fix this would be to put the
serialization code in the source file instead of the header file but I can't
get this to work... I always end up with unresolved externals if the body of
my serialization functions are not within the header file. Any way around
this beside switching to non-intrusive serialization?

thanx!
