Interface MetadataCacheStorageSerializer

@NoImplement
public interface MetadataCacheStorageSerializer

Serializer used to serialize and deserialize objects used in a MetadataCacheStorage in case it's needed.

It's very important that serialized objects are not modified in any way in order to be able to deserialize them. That means that, the same bytes that are written to the OutputStream when serializing, should be read from the InputStream when deserializing.

Since:

1.2.2, 1.3.0
