Hi I am trying to use the serialization library for non-polymorphic types without RTTI. In release mode everything works fine, but in debug mode there are problems because dynamic_cast is used for debugging purposes. The code is in smart_cast.hpp, starting in line 87: #if ! defined(NDEBUG) \ || defined(__MWERKS__) // do a checked dynamic cast return cross::cast(u); #else I believe the first line could be replaced with: #if (! defined(NDEBUG) && ! defined(BOOST_NO_RTTI) ) \ Is this something you are willing to consider? I decided to ask before creating any ticket or pull request because there is a number of previous attempts to make serialization work without RTTI for the general case. But this is specific for non-polymorphic types. Thanks. Jorge
