Hi,

   I am trying to learn how to read an XML file using boost-serialization.
   The code snippet of a sample program is as follows :

   void restore_schedule(bus_schedule &s, const char * filename)
   {
       // open the archive
       std::ifstream ifs(filename);
       assert(ifs.good());
       boost::archive::xml_iarchive ia(ifs);

       // restore the schedule from the archive
       ia >> BOOST_SERIALIZATION_NVP(s);
   }

   First few lines of demo.xml are as follows :
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
   <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="XSLTFile.xsl"?>
   <!DOCTYPE boost_serialization>
   <boost_serialization signature="serialization::archive" version="6">

   But this gives me below error :
   $ ./a.out
   terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::archive::xml_archive_exception'
     what():  unrecognized XML syntax

   If I remove the line :
   <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="XSLTFile.xsl"?>

   from demo.xml then it works fine.

   Can you please let me know if there is any workaround for this problem?
   Currently I am using Fedora Core 13 with boost-serialization-1.41.0-7.fc13.i686.
   Is this case handled in latest boost release?

Girish
