BOOST_SERIALIZATION_SPLIT_FREE(transmit_type)

BOOST_SERIALIZATION_SPLIT_FREE(recieve_type)

template<class Archive>
save<transmit_type>(Archive ar, ...){...}
load<recieve_type>(...){..}.

leave undefined the following:

save<recieve_type>(...){..}.
load<transmit_type>(Archive ar, ...){...}

So that your get a compile time error if you
try to

ar >> transmit_type
