Class ByteSerializer

java.lang.Object
  com.sibvisions.rad.remote.ByteSerializer

All Implemented Interfaces:

ISerializer

public final class ByteSerializer
extends Object
implements ISerializer

The ByteSerializer converts an object state into a byte stream in such a way that the byte stream can be converted back into a copy of the object. For simple types, the conversion is not VM dependent, e.g. serialization can be done with jdk 1.3 and deserialization can be done with jdk 1.5.

All complex types are serialized via VM serialization mode.
