C++ :: Getting Consistent Type Names Under Windows And Linux?

I'm writing a server/client application in C++, one linux and one windows. The generic communication method is to use the boost::serialization package, but I'll also use a header to distinguish the type of the serialized string.

Here is the struct that the two programs communicate with

struct SerializeString {
std::string type_name;
std::string serialized_string;
friend class boost::serialization::access;
template<typename Archive>
void serialize(Archive& ar, const unsigned version) {
ar & type_name & serialized_string;
}
};

When one side wants to pass an object to another side, it uses typeid(T).name() for the field type_name. The receiving side receives SerializeString and checks its type_name against various acceptable structs as follows:

if (ss.type_name == typeid(XXX).name()) {
// deserialize ss.serialized_string to XXX and do something with it
} else if (ss.type_name == typeid(YYY).name()) {
// deserialize ss.serialized_string to YYY and do something with it
} else if (ss.type_name == typeid(ZZZ).name()) {
// deserialize ss.serialized_string to ZZZ and do something with it
} else {
// etc...
}

This worked fine when I was using Windows VS2013 on two different windows platform. However when I switch one to Linux there is a problem because their typeid(XXX).name() returns different things. So question here, is there a generic way to get some sort of unique names across platform / compiler? Or is my method reasonable at all?
