[Trilinos-Users] Compilation Problem on 64 bit on Windows 7

[Kurtis Nusbaum]

Faith,
Ok, so I know what's going on, let me see if I can explain it correctly.
Somewhere in Trilinos there is a use of the SerializationTraits class. In
this code the SerializationTraits class It is templated on some type T. Now,
in order to use the SerializationTraits class on type T, a "template
specialization" of the SerializationTraits class must be defined for that
type T (for more on template specialization please see:
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/templates/ ). We've written the
SerialiationTraits class in such a way that if no specialization for a
particular type is supplied, a compiler error occurs (this is the purpose of
the UndfinedSerializationTraits class). So for what ever reason the
SerializationTraits class is does not have a specialization defined for type
T...or at least that's what the compiler thinks. To pinpoint the exact
problem, we're going to need more information about type T. Was their any
other error output?
