Method Detail

isSerializable

public static boolean isSerializable(Object ob)

Test to see if the specified Object will be able to be serialized. This will check if the object implements Serializable, and if so, will try to perform an actual serialization. This is in case the object has fields which, in turn, are not serializable.

Parameters:

ob - the object to test

Returns:

true if the object will be able to be serialized

checkSerialize

public static Exception checkSerialize(Exception e)

Return the exception if it is serializable, otherwise return null.

replaceFailedObject

static Object replaceFailedObject(Object ob)

Convert the specified failed object into a serializable object for when we are serializing an Exception. It will try the following:

• if the object can be serialized, return the object itself
• if the object has a PC ID, return the ID
• return the toString() form of the object

Parameters:

ob - the object to convert

Returns:

some serialized representation of the object

replaceNestedThrowables

static Throwable[] replaceNestedThrowables(Throwable[] nested)

Convert the specified throwables into a serialzable array. If any of the nested throwables cannot be serialized, they will be converted into a Exception with the original message.
