public interface FastExternalizable extends Externalizable
A FastExternalizable object does not have any loops in its object graph, or is able to restore the loops itself upon deserialization.

FastExternalizable-aware containers may use this assumption to perform more efficient serialization.

    • getSerialVersionUID

      long getSerialVersionUID()
      Gets the serialVersionUID for this object. Since FastExternalizable-aware containers are not special JVM constructs, they do not have access to the private and protected fields. It is assumed that two separate instances of the same class will always return the same serialVersionUID.
