Interface ReadResolvable<T>

Type Parameters:

T - The type of object that this interface is applied to.

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface ReadResolvable<T>

This interface is used for objects that require a post-deserialization step. Objects that implement this interface can provide a custom logic for resolving the object after it has been deserialized.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
T	readResolve() A method to be implemented by classes that need to perform a post-deserialization step.
static <T> T	readResolve(Object o) Resolves the given object by calling its readResolve method if it implements the ReadResolvable interface, otherwise it checks if the object is Serializable and attempts to call its readResolve method.

Method Detail

readResolve

static <T> T readResolve(Object o)

Resolves the given object by calling its readResolve method if it implements the ReadResolvable interface, otherwise it checks if the object is Serializable and attempts to call its readResolve method. If the object does not meet any of the above conditions, it is returned as is.

Type Parameters:

T - The type of object.

Parameters:

o - The object to be resolved.

Returns:

The resolved object, or the original object if readResolve does not exist or is not applicable.

readResolve

@NotNull
T readResolve()

A method to be implemented by classes that need to perform a post-deserialization step. This method is called to return a replacement object for the one that was deserialized.

Returns:

The replacement object to be used after deserialization.
