It seems like the documentation for boost::mpi::packed_iarchive and boost::mpi::packed_oarchive are reversed. boost::mpi_packed_iarchive uses MPI_Unpack and boost::mpi::packed_oarchive uses MPI_Pack. This can be verified by looking at the packed_iprimitive and packed_oprimitive base classes. The documentation, as well as the packed_iarchive and packed_oarchive header files, however, say the opposite - that packed_oarchive uses MPI_Unpack and packed_iarchive uses MPI_Pack.
I’m not clear where in the documentation you’re referring to, can you point me to the pages or are you talking about the Description on these two pages? http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/doc/html/boost/mpi/packed_iarchive.html http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/doc/html/boost/mpi/packed_oarchive.html — Noel
