ObjectStreamField
public ObjectStreamField(String name,
Class type)
-
Create a Serializable field with the specified type. This field should be documented with a serialField tag.
-
Parameters:
-
name - the name of the serializable field
-
type - the Class object of the serializable field
ObjectStreamField
public ObjectStreamField(String name,
Class type,
boolean unshared)
-
Creates an ObjectStreamField representing a serializable field with the given name and type. If unshared is false, values of the represented field are serialized and deserialized in the default manner--if the field is non-primitive, object values are serialized and deserialized as if they had been written and read by calls to writeObject and readObject. If unshared is true, values of the represented field are serialized and deserialized as if they had been written and read by calls to writeUnshared and readUnshared.
-
Parameters:
-
name - field name
-
type - field type
-
unshared - if false, write/read field values in the same manner as writeObject/readObject; if true, write/read in the same manner as writeUnshared/readUnshared
getName
public String getName()
-
Get the name of this field.
-
-
-
Returns:
-
a String representing the name of the serializable field
getType
public Class getType()
-
Get the type of the field.
If the type is non-primitive and this ObjectStreamField was obtained from a deserialized
ObjectStreamClass
instance, then Object.class is returned. Otherwise, the Class object for the type of the field is returned.
-
-
-
Returns:
-
a
the
Class object
representing the type
of the serializable field
getTypeCode
public char getTypeCode()
-
Returns character encoding of field type. The encoding is as follows:
B byte
C char
D double
F float
I int
J long
L class or interface
S short
Z boolean
[ array
-
-
-
Returns:
-
the typecode of the serializable field
getTypeString
public String getTypeString()
-
Return the JVM type signature.
-
-
-
Returns:
-
null if this field has a primitive type.
getOffset
public int getOffset()
-
Offset of field within instance data.
-
-
-
Returns:
-
the offset of this field
-
See Also:
-
setOffset(int)
setOffset
protected void setOffset(int offset)
-
Offset within instance data.
-
-
-
Parameters:
-
offset - the offset of the field
-
See Also:
-
getOffset()
isPrimitive
public boolean isPrimitive()
-
Return true if this field has a primitive type.
-
-
-
Returns:
-
true if and only if this field corresponds to a primitive type
isUnshared
public boolean isUnshared()
-
Returns boolean value indicating whether or not the serializable field represented by this ObjectStreamField instance is unshared.
-
-
compareTo
public int compareTo(Object obj)
-
Compare this field with another ObjectStreamField. Return -1 if this is smaller, 0 if equal, 1 if greater. Types that are primitives are "smaller" than object types. If equal, the field names are compared.
-
-
Specified by:
-
compareTo
in interface
Comparable
-
-
Parameters:
-
obj - the Object to be compared.
-
Returns:
-
a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object.
toString
public String toString()
-
Return a string that describes this field.
-
-
Overrides:
-
toString
in class
Object
-
-
Returns:
-
a string representation of the object.
