Method Detail

writeUTF

public static void writeUTF(ObjectOutput output,
                            String str)
                     throws IOException

helper function to write a String during serialization. We need this because java.io.writeUTF does not accept a null object. So this is a wrapper to handle the null object. Used in conjuction with SerializeUtil.readUTF

Parameters:

output - the object output stream to write the String. Cannot be null.

str - the String object to serialize.

Throws:

IOException - I/O error occurred while writing to output

See Also:

readUTF(java.io.ObjectInput)

readUTF

public static String readUTF(ObjectInput input)
                      throws IOException

helper function to read a String during serialization. We need this because java.io.writeUTF does not accept a null object. So this is a wrapper to handle the null object. Used in conjuction with SerializeUtil.writeUTF

Parameters:

input - the object input stream to read the String. Cannot be null.

Returns:

the String read.

Throws:

IOException - I/O error occurred while reading from input

writeLocale

public static void writeLocale(ObjectOutput output,
                               Locale locale)
                        throws IOException

helper function to write the Locale object during serialization. Actually, only the String returned by the Locale.toString method is serialized.

Parameters:

output - the ObjectOutput stream to write out the Locale object. Cannot be null.

locale - the Locale object to write, okay to be null.

Throws:

IOException - throws IOException if the write fails.

See Also:

readLocale(java.io.ObjectInput)

readLocale

public static Locale readLocale(ObjectInput input)
                         throws IOException

helper function to read the Locale object during serialization, read back the String from the given input stream.

Parameters:

input - the ObjectInput stream to read from, cannot be null.

Returns:

the Locale object corresponding to the String read.

Throws:

IOException - throws IOException if the read fails.
