Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #1823: Archive concept: Incomplete description?

I don't know for a fact that this is still the case. I think that I might have changed things so that derived polymorphic classes have to be registered explicity whether or not they are referred to by name.

I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that

Derived d;
ar & d;

does *not* register Derived? I can't imagine that is what you mean, but just want to be sure.

Definitely the following should not register derived:

Derived d;
Base & b(d);
ar & b;

That's what I'm saying. If I recall, the "side effect" created a problem with abstract classes or something. Unfortunately I forget. If you look at one of the earlier resolved trak items you might find it. I had to disable the "side effect" because it was causing this problem.

Hmm. Can you take a look at the list here and see if you remember which one it was? I can't find it:

Ah, is it #1267 ?

Just tried this in trunk. This seems to work so I am not sure if we are misunderstanding each other or not.
