Class ObjectSerializerImpl

java.lang.Object
  org.jppf.utils.ObjectSerializerImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:

ObjectSerializer

Direct Known Subclasses:

GSObjectSerializer

public class ObjectSerializerImpl
extends Object
implements ObjectSerializer

Instances of this class are used to serialize or deserialize objects to or from an array of bytes.
A specific use of this class is that it can be loaded by a new classloader, making the execution transparent to any change in the client code.

Method Detail

serialize

public JPPFBuffer serialize(Object o)
                     throws Exception

Serialize an object into an array of bytes.

Specified by:

serialize in interface ObjectSerializer

Parameters:

o - the object to Serialize.

Returns:

a JPPFBuffer instance holding the serialized object.

Throws:

Exception - if the object can't be serialized.

serialize

public JPPFBuffer serialize(Object o,
                            boolean noCopy)
                     throws Exception

Serialize an object into an array of bytes.

Specified by:

serialize in interface ObjectSerializer

Parameters:

o - the object to Serialize.

noCopy - avoid copying intermediate buffers.

Returns:

a JPPFBuffer instance holding the serialized object.

Throws:

Exception - if the object can't be serialized.

ObjectSerializer.serialize(java.lang.Object)

serialize

public void serialize(Object o,
                      OutputStream os)
               throws Exception

Serialize an object into an output stream.

Specified by:

serialize in interface ObjectSerializer

Parameters:

o - the object to Serialize.

os - the output stream to serialize to.

Throws:

Exception - if the object can't be serialized.

See Also:

ObjectSerializer.serialize(java.lang.Object, java.io.OutputStream)

serialize

public void serialize(Object o,
                      DataLocation location)
               throws Exception

Serialize an object into an output stream.

Parameters:

o - the object to Serialize.

location - the location to serialize to.

Throws:

Exception - if the object can't be serialized.

deserialize

public Object deserialize(JPPFBuffer buf)
                   throws Exception

Read an object from an array of bytes.

Specified by:

deserialize in interface ObjectSerializer

Parameters:

buf - buffer holding the array of bytes to deserialize from.

Returns:

the object that was deserialized from the array of bytes.

Throws:

Exception - if the ObjectInputStream used for deserialization raises an error.

See Also:

ObjectSerializer.deserialize(org.jppf.utils.JPPFBuffer)

deserialize

public Object deserialize(byte[] bytes)
                   throws Exception

Specified by:

deserialize in interface ObjectSerializer

Parameters:

bytes - buffer holding the array of bytes to deserialize from.

Returns:

the object that was deserialized from the array of bytes.

ObjectSerializer.deserialize(byte[])

deserialize

public Object deserialize(byte[] bytes,
                          int offset,
                          int length)
                   throws Exception

Read an object from an array of bytes.

Specified by:

deserialize in interface ObjectSerializer

Parameters:

bytes - buffer holding the array of bytes to deserialize from.

offset - position at which to start reading the bytes from.

length - the number of bytes to read.

Returns:

the object that was deserialized from the array of bytes.

Throws:

Exception - if the ObjectInputStream used for deserialization raises an error.

See Also:

ObjectSerializer.deserialize(byte[], int, int)

deserialize

public Object deserialize(InputStream is)
                   throws Exception

Read an object from an input stream.

Specified by:

deserialize in interface ObjectSerializer

Parameters:

is - - the input stream to deserialize from.

Returns:

the object that was deserialized from the array of bytes.

Throws:

Exception - if the ObjectInputStream used for deserialization raises an error.
