Well, it is most likely because I;m doing it completely wrong ;)

Because I have a shared pointer, and ( for other reasons ) I do not
want to use "shared_ptr"

So, a simplified version of my problem could look like this:

struct A {
    std::vector<unsigned> data;
};

struct B {
    const std::vector<unsigned> * data_ptr;
};

struct C {
    A a;
    std::vector<B> elements;
};

What would a serializing function for A, B and C look like.
