getSerialVersionUID

public static final long getSerialVersionUID(Class<?> clazz)

Return the serialVersionUID for this class. The serialVersionUID defines a set of classes all with the same name that have evolved from a common root class and agree to be serialized and deserialized using a common format.

getSerialVersionUID

public final long getSerialVersionUID()

Return the serialVersionUID for this class. The serialVersionUID defines a set of classes all with the same name that have evolved from a common root class and agree to be serialized and deserialized using a common format.

getSerialVersionUIDStr

public final String getSerialVersionUIDStr()

Return the serialVersionUID string for this class. The serialVersionUID defines a set of classes all with the same name that have evolved from a common root class and agree to be serialized and deserialized using a common format.

getActualSerialVersionUID

public static final long getActualSerialVersionUID(Class<?> clazz)

Return the actual (computed) serialVersionUID for this class.

getActualSerialVersionUID

public final long getActualSerialVersionUID()

Return the actual (computed) serialVersionUID for this class.

getActualSerialVersionUIDStr

public final String getActualSerialVersionUIDStr()

Return the actual (computed) serialVersionUID for this class.

forClass

public final Class<?> forClass()

Return the class in the local VM that this version is mapped to. Null is returned if there is no corresponding local class.

getFields

public com.sun.corba.se.impl.orbutil.ObjectStreamField[] getFields()

Return an array of the fields of this serializable class.

Returns:

an array containing an element for each persistent field of this class. Returns an array of length zero if there are no fields.

Since:

JDK1.2

public boolean hasField(ValueMember field)

getField

public final com.sun.corba.se.impl.orbutil.ObjectStreamField getField(String name)

Get the field of this class by name.

Returns:

The ObjectStreamField object of the named field or null if there is no such named field.

writeReplace

public Serializable writeReplace(Serializable value)

readResolve

public Object readResolve(Object value)

toString

public final String toString()

Return a string describing this ObjectStreamClass_1_3_1.
