bool question?

[Rene De La Garza]

im trying to serialize something but this works; ar << m_bool; and this doesn`t: ar >> m_bool; why?

[dang]

i notice in "afx.h" that the CArchive class does not have an explicit override for '<< bool' so this may be the problem. try casting it like this (as an experiment): ar << (int)m_bool; ar >> (int&)m_bool;

thanks it compiles just let me check if it works fine:-D

As already explained, this was just an experiment. For "the real stuff" you should provide your own streaming operators like: CArchive& operator<<(CArchive&, bool); CArchive& operator>>(CArchive&, bool&);
