Is there a way (through macro or static assertion) to test for the currently installed cereal version? Something like
https://github.com/ericniebler/range-v3/blob/master/include/range/v3/version.hpp
https://github.com/seqan/seqan3/blob/master/include/seqan3/version.hpp
https://github.com/boostorg/hana/blob/master/include/boost/hana/version.hpp

Since cereal is a header-only library, other libraries or apps may want to use it without relying on a build system... detection already works via #if __has_include(<cereal/cereal.hpp>), but it is important to also know the version for compatibility checks!

Thank you!

I think this is reasonable and something we should include starting with the next version. There is currently no way to do this with cereal.

This is not an exhaustive list of changes or individual contributions. See the closed issues or complete changelog for more information.
v1.3.0

New features include:

Deferred serialization for smart pointers (Stack overflow for large chains of shared_ptr (or smart pointers in general) USCiLab/cereal#185)
Initial support for C++17 standard library variant and optional (thanks to @arximboldi, Add serialization support for C++17 std::optional and std::variant USCiLab/cereal#448)
Support for std::atomic (thanks to @bluescarni, Implementation and testing of std::atomic serialization. USCiLab/cereal#277)
Fixes and enhancements include:

Vastly improved continuous integration testing (Appveyor updates + boost testing fixes USCiLab/cereal#568, Update Travis CI USCiLab/cereal#569)
Fixed several issues related to compilation on newer compilers (Fixing various compilation warnings USCiLab/cereal#579, Add fall through comments to json.hpp USCiLab/cereal#587, Fix warning unused private member itsValueItEnd USCiLab/cereal#515)
Fixed warnings with -Wconversion and -Wdocumentation (thanks to @WSoptics, Develop USCiLab/cereal#423)
Performance improvements for polymorphic serialization (PolymorphicVirtualCaster StaticObject instantiation takes a very long time at app startup USCiLab/cereal#354)
Minor fixes and enhancements include:

Fixed a bug related to CEREAL_REGISTER_DYNAMIC_INIT with shared libraries (thanks to @m2tm, Issue correctly using CEREAL_REGISTER_DYNAMIC_INIT USCiLab/cereal#523)
Avoid unnecessary undefined behavior with StaticObject (thanks to @erichkeane, Change StaticObject instance management to hopefully avoid UBSAN USCiLab/cereal#470)
New version.hpp file describes cereal version (detect cereal version at compile time / version.hpp USCiLab/cereal#444)
Ability to disable size=dynamic attribute in the XML archive (thanks to @hoensr, Add option to turn off the size=dynamic attributes of lists USCiLab/cereal#401)
Other Notes
The static checking for minimal serialization has been relaxed as there were many legitimate cases it was interfering with (thanks to @h-2, remove const check from load_minimal USCiLab/cereal#565)
The vs2013 directory has been removed in favor of generating solutions with CMake (Remove vs2013 directory USCiLab/cereal#574)
