struct cereal::detail::OutputBindingCreator< Archive, T >"Creates a binding (map entry) between an output archive type and a polymorphic type\&. 

Bindings are made when types are registered, assuming that at least one archive has already been registered\&. When this struct is created, it will insert (at run time) an entry into a map that properly handles casting for serializing polymorphic objects

Does the actual work of saving a polymorphic shared_ptr\&. This function will properly create a shared_ptr from the void * that is passed in before passing it to the archive for serialization\&.

This version is for types that do not inherit from std::enable_shared_from_this\&.

.PP
Does the actual work of saving a polymorphic shared_ptr\&. This function will properly create a shared_ptr from the void * that is passed in before passing it to the archive for serialization\&.

In addition, this will also preserve the state of any internal enable_shared_from_this mechanisms
