Background: Java Serialization

• Cleaner than in other languages: Reflection allows a system mechanism to introspect any object and serialize it...

  • Cf. classes ObjectOutputStream, InputObjectStream
  • ...oos.writeObject(ANYOBJECT);
  • Object ANY = ios.readObject();

• ...using a public stream format :)

• Writes/reads an object graph, including class descriptions, without repeating objects
