Marc Schmitt <schmitt.marc at gmail dot com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |schmitt.marc at gmail dot com --- Comment #5 from Marc Schmitt <schmitt.marc at gmail dot com> --- Hi, we encountered a the same bug. See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54534047/eigen-matrix-boostserialization-c17 The bug is reproducible with G++8. The bug seems to be related with the (new?) template argument deduction mechanism in G++7/8 with --std=c++17 (or --std=gnu++17). A simplified test case (thx @Marc Giese/SO), reproducing the problem just including Eigen without the boost dependency is attached (see below). // -------------------------------------------- // G++ 7 // -------------------------------------------- $ gcc -v Using built-in specs.
