Class ObjectStreamField
- Comparable<T>
This class intends to describe the field of a class for the serialization
subsystem. Serializable fields in a serializable class can be explicitly
exported using an array of ObjectStreamFields.
ObjectStreamField(String name, Class type)- This constructor creates an ObjectStreamField instance
which represents a field named
name and is
of the type type.
|
ObjectStreamField(String name, Class type, boolean unshared)- This constructor creates an ObjectStreamField instance
which represents a field named
name and is
of the type type.
|
int | compareTo(Object obj)- Compares this object to the given object.
|
String | getName()- This method returns the name of the field represented by the
ObjectStreamField instance.
|
int | getOffset()- This method returns the current offset of the field in
the serialization stream relatively to the other fields.
|
Class | getType()- This method returns the class representing the type of the
field which is represented by this instance of ObjectStreamField.
|
char | getTypeCode()- This method returns the char encoded type of the field which
is represented by this instance of ObjectStreamField.
|
String | getTypeString()- This method returns a more explicit type name than
getTypeCode() in the case the type is a real
class (and not a primitive).
|
boolean | isPrimitive()- This method returns true if the type of the field
represented by this instance is a primitive.
|
boolean | isUnshared()- This method returns whether the field represented by this object is
unshared or not.
|
protected void | setOffset(int off)- This method sets the current offset of the field.
|
String | toString()- Returns a string representing this object.

ObjectStreamField
public ObjectStreamField(String name,
Class type) This constructor creates an ObjectStreamField instance
which represents a field named name and is
of the type type.
name - Name of the field to export.type - Type of the field in the concerned class.
ObjectStreamField
public ObjectStreamField(String name,
Class type,
boolean unshared) This constructor creates an ObjectStreamField instance
which represents a field named name and is
of the type type.
name - Name of the field to export.type - Type of the field in the concerned class.unshared - true if field will be unshared, false otherwise.
compareTo
public int compareTo(Object obj)
Compares this object to the given object.
obj - the object to compare to.
getName
public String getName()
This method returns the name of the field represented by the
ObjectStreamField instance.
- A string containing the name of the field.
getOffset
public int getOffset()
This method returns the current offset of the field in
the serialization stream relatively to the other fields.
The offset is expressed in bytes.
- The offset of the field in bytes.
getType
public Class getType()
This method returns the class representing the type of the
field which is represented by this instance of ObjectStreamField.
- A class representing the type of the field.
getTypeCode
public char getTypeCode()
This method returns the char encoded type of the field which
is represented by this instance of ObjectStreamField.
- A char representing the type of the field.
getTypeString
public String getTypeString()
This method returns a more explicit type name than
getTypeCode() in the case the type is a real
class (and not a primitive).
- The name of the type (class name) if it is not a
primitive, in the other case null is returned.
isPrimitive
public boolean isPrimitive()
This method returns true if the type of the field
represented by this instance is a primitive.
- true if the type is a primitive, false
in the other case.
isUnshared
public boolean isUnshared()
This method returns whether the field represented by this object is
unshared or not.
- Tells if this field is unshared or not.
setOffset
protected void setOffset(int off)
This method sets the current offset of the field.
off - The offset of the field in bytes.
