Package com.hazelcast.nio.serialization

Contains interfaces/classes related to serialization, such as serializer interfaces, input/output streams.

See: Description

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
ByteArraySerializer<T>	For sample usage custom serialization and other way of custom serialization see StreamSerializer.
ClassDefinition	Defines a class schema for Portable classes.
ClassNameFilter	Allows to intercept class resolution during deserialization based on classname.
DataSerializable	DataSerializable is a serialization method alternative to standard Java serialization.
DataSerializableFactory	DataSerializableFactory is used to create IdentifiedDataSerializable instances during de-serialization.
FieldDefinition	Defines the name, type and index of a field.
IdentifiedDataSerializable	IdentifiedDataSerializable is an extension to DataSerializable to avoid reflection during de-serialization.
Portable	Portable provides an alternative serialization method.
PortableFactory	PortableFactory is used to create Portable instances during de-serialization.
PortableReader	Provides means for reading portable fields from binary data in the form of java primitives, arrays of java primitives, nested portable fields and array of portable fields.
PortableWriter	Provides means for writing portable fields to binary data in the form of java primitives, arrays of java primitives, nested portable fields and arrays of portable fields.
Serializer	Base interface of custom serialization interfaces
SerializerHook<T>	This interface is used to automatically register serializers from external Hazelcast or user modules. Both types of Serializers are supported (StreamSerializer and ByteArraySerializer).
StreamSerializer<T>	A base class for custom serialization.
TypedByteArrayDeserializer<T>	This interface allows deserialization of a binary data with a provided class type.
TypedDataSerializable	This interface adds the possibility for the class to act as if it is another class when being deserialized using DataSerializable
TypedStreamDeserializer<T>	This interface allows deserialization of a binary data with a provided class type.
VersionedPortable	An extension to Portable to support per-object version instead of a global serialization version.

Class Summary

Class	Description
ClassDefinitionBuilder	ClassDefinitionBuilder is used to build and register ClassDefinitions manually.

Enum Summary

Enum	Description
FieldKind	FieldKind for Compact and Portable formats.
FieldType	Field Type for Portable format to be used with ClassDefinition.getFieldType(String) API

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
HazelcastSerializationException	An exception thrown when a problem occurs while serializing/deserializing objects.
