I don't know what you're trying to do so I'll take a guess.

Does this look like what you want to do?

struct Container {
    int m_container_member;
    ... // more members
    template<class Archive>
    void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version){
        ar & m_container_member;
        ... // more members
    }
};
    
struct Example {
    friend class boost::serialization::access; // not really necessary as all "struct" members are public
    template<class Archive>
    void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int version){
        ar & m_container;
    }
};

int main(int argc, char * argv[]){
    const Container c = ...
    std::fostream os("filename");
    boost::serialization::archive ar(os);
    ar & c;
}

Does that help any?
