Yes, I've removed everything unnecessary to make the error show up, to not
confound the problem.
a) yes, but it doesn't declare a member function and then implement it in
the middle of the diamond
b) In my actual code, I'm using diamond inheritance of course, but it's not
needed to make the code fail to compile.
c) It fails to compile on both apple LLVM 8.0.0 on osx, and on gcc 4.9 on
ubuntu 12.04
d) not in the example, but in my project I need it to actually export.
Removing the export makes the code compile, but that doesn't help me, since
I want to do serialization
Note that I don't actually need to instantiate anything. I can remove `int
main` entirely, and only compile an object file and it generates the same
error.
To make the code compile, I can do multiple things: remove the
text_oarchive include, remove the export directive, remove the virtual
inheritance for `struct B`, remove the implementation of `void foo`, remove
the serialization of base_object<B> from struct C...
That makes the example compile, but doesn't tell me how to serialize an
object with diamond inheritance, where a pure virtual method from the
virtual base class is implemented by one of the classes in the middle.

Hi all,
When trying to serialize a class with a virtual base class, I'm getting compilation errors. It seems to be part of a bug in type_traits, but I'm wondering if anyone knows a workaround for making it work anyhow.
ultimately, the error boils down to "error: virtual function 'A::foo' has more than one final overrider in 'boost_type_traits_internal_struct_X'", using the code listing below.. It's simplified as much as possible, but obviously I need virtual inheritance due to using diamond inheritance.
#include
#include #include #include struct A { virtual ~A(){}; virtual void foo() = 0; template <class Archive> void serialize(Archive& ar, const unsigned int version) { } };
struct B : public virtual A { virtual void foo() { } template <class Archive> void serialize(Archive& ar, const unsigned int version) { ar& boost::serialization::base_object<A>(*this); } };
struct C : public B { template <class Archive> void serialize(Archive& ar, const unsigned int version) { ar& boost::serialization::base_object<B>(*this); } };
BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(C);
int main() { C c; return 0; }
Just some quick observations:
a) there is a example/test for diamond inheritance in the test suite b) I don't see diamond inhertance in your example. c) I might be helpful to indicate the compiler d) Your not actually doing an serialization so I doubt you need "export"
I would keep cutting down the example until it starts to compile. I'm very doubtful that this has anything to do with serialization or diamond inheritance
