Constructor Detail

ObjectInputStream

public ObjectInputStream(InputStream in)
                  throws IOException
Enabled: Creates an ObjectInputStream that reads from the specified InputStream. A serialization stream header is read from the stream and verified. This constructor will block until the corresponding ObjectOutputStream has written and flushed the header.

If a security manager is installed, this constructor will check for the "enableSubclassImplementation" SerializablePermission when invoked directly or indirectly by the constructor of a subclass which overrides the ObjectInputStream.readFields or ObjectInputStream.readUnshared methods.

Parameters:
in - input stream to read from
Throws:
StreamCorruptedException - if the stream header is incorrect
IOException - if an I/O error occurs while reading stream header
SecurityException - if untrusted subclass illegally overrides security-sensitive methods
NullPointerException - if in is null

ObjectInputStream(), readFields(), ObjectOutputStream.ObjectOutputStream(OutputStream)

ObjectInputStream

protected ObjectInputStream()
                     throws IOException,
                            SecurityException
Provide a way for subclasses that are completely reimplementing ObjectInputStream to not have to allocate private data just used by this implementation of ObjectInputStream.

If there is a security manager installed, this method first calls the security manager's checkPermission method with the SerializablePermission("enableSubclassImplementation") permission to ensure it's ok to enable subclassing.

Throws:
SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPermission method denies enabling subclassing.
IOException

SecurityManager.checkPermission(java.security.Permission), java.io.SerializablePermission
Method Detail

readObject

public final Object readObject()
                        throws IOException,
                               ClassNotFoundException
Enabled: Read an object from the ObjectInputStream. The class of the object, the signature of the class, and the values of the non-transient and non-static fields of the class and all of its supertypes are read. Default deserializing for a class can be overriden using the writeObject and readObject methods. Objects referenced by this object are read transitively so that a complete equivalent graph of objects is reconstructed by readObject.

The root object is completly restored when all of its fields and the objects it references are completely restored. At this point the object validation callbacks are executed in order based on their registered priorities. The callbacks are registered by objects (in the readObject special methods) as they are individually restored.

Exceptions are thrown for problems with the InputStream and for classes that should not be deserialized. All exceptions are fatal to the InputStream and leave it in an indeterminate state; it is up to the caller to ignore or recover the stream state.

Specified by:
readObject in interface ObjectInput
Returns:
the object read from the stream
Throws:
ClassNotFoundException - Class of a serialized object cannot be found.
InvalidClassException - Something is wrong with a class used by serialization.
StreamCorruptedException - Control information in the stream is inconsistent.
OptionalDataException - Primitive data was found in the stream instead of objects.
IOException - Any of the usual Input/Output related exceptions.

readObjectOverride

protected Object readObjectOverride()
                             throws IOException,
                                    ClassNotFoundException
This method is called by trusted subclasses of ObjectOutputStream that constructed ObjectOutputStream using the protected no-arg constructor. The subclass is expected to provide an override method with the modifier "final".

Returns:
the Object read from the stream.
Throws:
ClassNotFoundException - Class definition of a serialized object cannot be found.
OptionalDataException - Primitive data was found in the stream instead of objects.
IOException - if I/O errors occurred while reading from the underlying stream
Since:
1.2
See Also:
ObjectInputStream(), readObject()

readUnshared

public Object readUnshared()
                    throws IOException,
                           ClassNotFoundException
Enabled: Reads an "unshared" object from the ObjectInputStream. This method is identical to readObject, except that it prevents subsequent calls to readObject and readUnshared from returning additional references to the deserialized instance obtained via this call. Specifically: Deserializing an object via readUnshared invalidates the stream handle associated with the returned object. Note that this in itself does not always guarantee that the reference returned by readUnshared is unique; the deserialized object may define a readResolve method which returns an object visible to other parties, or readUnshared may return a Class object obtainable elsewhere in the stream or through external means.

However, for objects which are not instances of java.lang.Class and do not define readResolve methods, readUnshared guarantees that the returned object reference is unique and cannot be obtained a second time from the ObjectInputStream that created it, even if the underlying data stream has been manipulated. This guarantee applies only to the base-level object returned by readUnshared, and not to any transitively referenced sub-objects in the returned object graph.

ObjectInputStream subclasses which override this method can only be constructed in security contexts possessing the "enableSubclassImplementation" SerializablePermission; any attempt to instantiate such a subclass without this permission will cause a SecurityException to be thrown.

Returns:
reference to deserialized object
Throws:
ClassNotFoundException - if class of an object to deserialize cannot be found
StreamCorruptedException - if control information in the stream is inconsistent
ObjectStreamException - if object to deserialize has already appeared in stream
OptionalDataException - if primitive data is next in stream
IOException - if an I/O error occurs during deserialization

defaultReadObject

public void defaultReadObject()
                       throws IOException,
                              ClassNotFoundException
Enabled: Read the non-static and non-transient fields of the current class from this stream. This may only be called from the readObject method of the class being deserialized. It will throw the NotActiveException if it is called otherwise.

Throws:
ClassNotFoundException - if the class of a serialized object could not be found.
IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
NotActiveException - if the stream is not currently reading objects.

readFields

public java.io.ObjectInputStream.GetField readFields()
                                              throws IOException,
                                                     ClassNotFoundException
Enabled: Reads the persistent fields from the stream and makes them available by name.

Returns:
the GetField object representing the persistent fields of the object being deserialized
Throws:
ClassNotFoundException - if the class of a serialized object could not be found.
IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
NotActiveException - if the stream is not currently reading objects.
Since:
1.2

registerValidation

public void registerValidation(ObjectInputValidation obj,
                               int prio)
                        throws NotActiveException,
                               InvalidObjectException
Enabled: Register an object to be validated before the graph is returned. While similar to resolveObject these validations are called after the entire graph has been reconstituted. Typically, a readObject method will register the object with the stream so that when all of the objects are restored a final set of validations can be performed.

Parameters:
obj - the object to receive the validation callback.
prio - controls the order of callbacks;zero is a good default. Use higher numbers to be called back earlier, lower numbers for later callbacks. Within a priority, callbacks are processed in no particular order.
Throws:
NotActiveException - The stream is not currently reading objects so it is invalid to register a callback.
InvalidObjectException - The validation object is null.

resolveClass

protected Class resolveClass(ObjectStreamClass desc)
                      throws IOException,
                             ClassNotFoundException
Load the local class equivalent of the specified stream class description. Subclasses may implement this method to allow classes to be fetched from an alternate source.

The corresponding method in ObjectOutputStream is annotateClass. This method will be invoked only once for each unique class in the stream. This method can be implemented by subclasses to use an alternate loading mechanism but must return a Class object. Once returned, the serialVersionUID of the class is compared to the serialVersionUID of the serialized class. If there is a mismatch, the deserialization fails and an exception is raised.

By default the class name is resolved relative to the class that called readObject.

Parameters:
desc - an instance of class ObjectStreamClass
Returns:
a Class object corresponding to desc
Throws:
IOException - any of the usual input/output exceptions
ClassNotFoundException - if class of a serialized object cannot be found

resolveProxyClass

protected Class resolveProxyClass(String[] interfaces)
                           throws IOException,
                                  ClassNotFoundException
Returns a proxy class that implements the interfaces named in a proxy class descriptor; subclasses may implement this method to read custom data from the stream along with the descriptors for dynamic proxy classes, allowing them to use an alternate loading mechanism for the interfaces and the proxy class.

This method is called exactly once for each unique proxy class descriptor in the stream.

The corresponding method in ObjectOutputStream is annotateProxyClass. For a given subclass of ObjectInputStream that overrides this method, the annotateProxyClass method in the corresponding subclass of ObjectOutputStream must write any data or objects read by this method.

The default implementation of this method in ObjectInputStream returns the result of calling Proxy.getProxyClass with the list of Class objects for the interfaces that are named in the interfaces parameter. The Class object for each interface name i is the value returned by calling

     Class.forName(i, false, loader)
 
where loader is that of the first non-null class loader up the execution stack, or null if no non-null class loaders are on the stack (the same class loader choice used by the resolveClass method). Unless any of the resolved interfaces are non-public, this same value of loader is also the class loader passed to Proxy.getProxyClass; if non-public interfaces are present, their class loader is passed instead (if more than one non-public interface class loader is encountered, an IllegalAccessError is thrown). If Proxy.getProxyClass throws an IllegalArgumentException, resolveProxyClass will throw a ClassNotFoundException containing the IllegalArgumentException.

Parameters:
interfaces - the list of interface names that were deserialized in the proxy class descriptor
Returns:
a proxy class for the specified interfaces
Throws:
IOException - any exception thrown by the underlying InputStream
ClassNotFoundException - if the proxy class or any of the named interfaces could not be found
Since:
1.3
See Also:
ObjectOutputStream.annotateProxyClass(Class)

resolveObject

protected Object resolveObject(Object obj)
                        throws IOException
This method will allow trusted subclasses of ObjectInputStream to substitute one object for another during deserialization. Replacing objects is disabled until enableResolveObject is called. The enableResolveObject method checks that the stream requesting to resolve object can be trusted. Every reference to serializable objects is passed to resolveObject. To insure that the private state of objects is not unintentionally exposed only trusted streams may use resolveObject.

This method is called after an object has been read but before it is returned from readObject. The default resolveObject method just returns the same object.

When a subclass is replacing objects it must insure that the substituted object is compatible with every field where the reference will be stored. Objects whose type is not a subclass of the type of the field or array element abort the serialization by raising an exception and the object is not be stored.

This method is called only once when each object is first encountered. All subsequent references to the object will be redirected to the new object.

Parameters:
obj - object to be substituted
Returns:
the substituted object
Throws:
IOException - Any of the usual Input/Output exceptions.

enableResolveObject

protected boolean enableResolveObject(boolean enable)
                               throws SecurityException
Enable the stream to allow objects read from the stream to be replaced. When enabled, the resolveObject method is called for every object being deserialized.

If enable is true, and there is a security manager installed, this method first calls the security manager's checkPermission method with the SerializablePermission("enableSubstitution") permission to ensure it's ok to enable the stream to allow objects read from the stream to be replaced.

Parameters:
enable - true for enabling use of resolveObject for every object being deserialized
Returns:
the previous setting before this method was invoked
Throws:
SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPermission method denies enabling the stream to allow objects read from the stream to be replaced.
See Also:
SecurityManager.checkPermission(java.security.Permission), java.io.SerializablePermission

readStreamHeader

protected void readStreamHeader()
                         throws IOException,
                                StreamCorruptedException
The readStreamHeader method is provided to allow subclasses to read and verify their own stream headers. It reads and verifies the magic number and version number.

Throws:
IOException - if there are I/O errors while reading from the underlying InputStream
StreamCorruptedException - if control information in the stream is inconsistent

readClassDescriptor

protected ObjectStreamClass readClassDescriptor()
                                         throws IOException,
                                                ClassNotFoundException
Read a class descriptor from the serialization stream. This method is called when the ObjectInputStream expects a class descriptor as the next item in the serialization stream. Subclasses of ObjectInputStream may override this method to read in class descriptors that have been written in non-standard formats (by subclasses of ObjectOutputStream which have overridden the writeClassDescriptor method). By default, this method reads class descriptors according to the format defined in the Object Serialization specification.

Returns:
the class descriptor read
Throws:
IOException - If an I/O error has occurred.
ClassNotFoundException - If the Class of a serialized object used in the class descriptor representation cannot be found
Since:
1.3
