I don't know what you mean by a "strongly typed enum". If you want to post a small sample I'll have a look at it. But until that happens there's nothing I can do.

I mean the new C++11 strongly typed enumeration as described here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B11#Strongly_typed_enumerations

Compiling the following gives the error:
C:\Boost\include\boost-1_47\boost/serialization/access.hpp(118): error : expression must have class type

enum class MyEnum { first, second, third };
MyEnum myenum = MyEnum::second;
std::ofstream file( _T("serialized_enum"), std::ios::out | std::ios::binary );
boost::archive::binary_oarchive outArchive( file );
outArchive << myenum;
file.close();
