Constructor Detail

Pair.Externalizer

public Pair.Externalizer()

Method Detail

getInstance

public static Pair.Externalizer getInstance()

Get the single instance. Though multiple instances can be created using the public constructor, only a single instance need be used in practice since this class maintains no internal state.

Returns:

the instance

writeExternal

public void writeExternal(java.lang.Object subject,
                 java.io.ObjectOutput output)
                   throws java.io.IOException

Write the external representation of an object. The object's class and the externalizer's class will already have been written.

Specified by:

writeExternal in interface Externalizer

Parameters:

subject - the object to externalize

output - the output

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs

createExternal

public java.lang.Object createExternal(java.lang.Class<?> subjectType,
                              java.io.ObjectInput input,
                              Creator defaultCreator)
                                throws java.io.IOException,
                                       java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

Create an instance of a type. The object may then be initialized from input, or that may be deferred to the readExternal() method. Instances may simply delegate the task to the given Creator. Note that this method is called only on the leaf class, so externalizers for non-final classes that initialize the instance from the stream need to be aware of this.

Specified by:

createExternal in interface Externalizer

Parameters:

subjectType - the type of object to create

input - the input

defaultCreator - the configured creator

Returns:

the new instance

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException - if a class could not be found during read

readExternal

public void readExternal(java.lang.Object subject,
                java.io.ObjectInput input)

Read the external representation of an object. The object will already be instantiated, but may be uninitialized, when this method is called.

Specified by:

readExternal in interface Externalizer

Parameters:

subject - the object to read

input - the input

writeExternal

public void writeExternal(java.io.ObjectOutput out)

Specified by:

writeExternal in interface java.io.Externalizable

readExternal

public void readExternal(java.io.ObjectInput in)

Specified by:

readExternal in interface java.io.Externalizable

readResolve

protected java.lang.Object readResolve()

Resolve the object to the single externalizer instance.

Returns:

the instance
