Hello,
I hope this is the right place to post a question on Boost. If not,
please let me know where I can post this message and I will do so.
I am having a strange problem with std::string as I am trying to read
from a binary archive using Boost serialization. I am new to this, and
it is possible that I have not understood the usage. In the code
below, the string "faultblock" seems to be causing the problem. The
code crashes in the ia & tst line which is reading back the archive -
the stack indicates that it is trying to read an invalid string.
I have tried to minimize the code I need to post, but sorry if this is
still too much.
I'd appreciate any help with this. I am using Boost 1.34.0 on windows
XP.
Best Regards
Mahesh
