org.erights.e.elib.serial
Interface Persistent

All Superinterfaces:

Marker, Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

AstroTag, BaseSchema, Brand, Deflector, DisconnectedRef, EList, EMap, ESet, GraphParam, MessageDesc, NetConfig, Node, ObjectID, Once, ParamDesc, QAstroArg, QuasiContent, ReadOnlyFile, Retainer, SealedBox, Sealer, SourceSpan, StaticMaker, StemCell, SturdyRef, Term, TypeDesc, UnconnectedRef, Unsealer

public interface Persistent

extends Serializable, Marker

Untamed: Marker interface that enables object to be saved and restored using the org.erights.e.elib.serial.SerializationStream and org.erights.e.elib.serial.UnserializationStream as parameterized by org.erights.e.extern.persist.PersistenceReplacer and org.erights.e.extern.persist.PersistenceReviver.

This interface helps to determine whether an object org.erights.e.elib.ref.Ref#isPersistent(Object).

Field Detail

serialVersionUID

public static final long serialVersionUID

Enabled:

HONORED_NAMES

public static final String[] HONORED_NAMES

Enabled: List of Java library classes to be considered persistent.

This is because, since they are JavaSoft's, we obviously can't go back and modify them to implement the Persistent interface, but we equally obviously want people to be able to use them as if we had.

HONORARY

public static final ConstSubclassSet HONORARY

Enabled: HONORARY (effectively) contains all the classes named in HONORED_NAMES and all their subclasses.
