New subject: problem with float or double serialization withbinary archive VC 7.1 boost1.32 and 1.33

2 Aug 2005

      Hye,

this little program fail in serialization of a float with binary archive but success with xml or text archive ??

as i am not an expert, i have now idea why ???
 i have the save problem with double and like with float, only depending of the value ....

it fails under windows XP, VC++7.1 but success under Linux + gcc 

thanks for helping ,
Stéphane.

 std::cout << "Valeur deserialisee binary "<< f1 << std::endl ;
    ifs.close();

void test_text (float & f)

output  :
