https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3394 <p> The last two checkouts I installed both failed passing strings through boost::mpi communication methods when the element type was not char. </p> <p> The distributed hello_world.cpp shows this when the strings are changed to wide strings (attached). </p> <p> Making the responsible methods generic on the string's element type fixes it (patch attached). </p> <p> However, I assume this is supposed to be handled by boost::serialization. </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3394 Trac 1.4.3 boost@… Wed, 02 Sep 2009 23:49:23 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3394 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3394 <ul> <li><strong>attachment</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">hello_world.cpp</span> </li> </ul> <p> Modified hello world program demonstrating the problem </p> Ticket boost@… Wed, 02 Sep 2009 23:51:48 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3394 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3394 <ul> <li><strong>attachment</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">boost-strings.diff</span> </li> </ul> <p> proposed fix </p> Ticket Matthias Troyer Wed, 03 Nov 2010 19:07:17 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3394#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3394#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">worksforme</span> </li> </ul> <p> This is already implemented </p> Ticket
