[Boost-users] [Serialization]Can not export polymorphic types

Subject: [Boost-users] [Serialization]Can not export polymorphic types

I made my own test program similar to test_no_rtti.cpp, only simpler. I have
one base class and two classes that derive from it. All three classes are
registered using BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT. I create an instance of each derived
class and serialize them to an xml file. I then reload the file and try to
serialize to a base class pointer and an "unregistered class" exception is
thrown. I have stepped through my code and most of the boost serialization
code and can not find a problem. The xml file looks good after creation but
for some reason boost can not serialize it in properly. I have attached my
short program. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
Many thanks,
Daniel Roberts
