Boost wserialization and serialization differences

boost, c++, serialization

Solution

`boost::wserialization` is just a wide-char oriented version of `boost::serialization`

Problem

I have searched the internet and the Boost serialization docs and I cannot find anything explaining why there are two different libs with boost serialization. So far I have found that wserialization depends on serialization but what exactly does it do? and why are the two libs seperate?
